On the farm there was a flock of lambs who believed that everything was done especially for them. The grass grew to please them and the rain fell to annoy them.
So when the lambs overhear the Farmer family say something about winning a school election by a landslide, of course they hear the word LAMBSLIDE.
Wait . . . there’s a slide made just for lambs?!
“How do we get a lambslide?” they all wonder.
There’s only one thing to do: Take a vote!
