Bookroo's summary

Nicolette Farmer's class president campaign sparks a hilarious misunderstanding among the farm's lambs. Convinced a 'lambslide' exists, they rally the farm animals to vote for their dream slide. Will their efforts pay off, or will they face a woolly disappointment? Join the lambs in this delightful tale of ambition and teamwork, where every vote counts and dreams might just come true.

From the publisher

From the international bestselling author of Bel Canto and Commonwealth, Ann Patchett, and the bestselling illustrator of the Fancy Nancy series, Robin Preiss Glasser, comes a hilarious children’s story about a slide made just for lambs. Nicolette Farmer is running for class president, and the rest of the Farmer family tells her she’ll win by a landslide. A pack of overconfident lambs mistakenly hear lambslide and can’t believe there’s a slide made just for them. But when they can’t find one on the farm, there’s only one thing left to do: take a vote! They campaign. They bargain. They ask all the other animals if they, too, would like a lambslide. Will the lambs ever get their special slide? Find out in this epic collaboration between Patchett and Glasser, who create the perfect children’s book.
