Will poor Simpson ever find a way to lull his Sheep to sleep? Illustrated with soft pastel drawings that are both silly and soothing, Simpson\'s Sheep Wont Go to Sleep! is a story for every parent who has put a child to bed -- and every child who has creatively resisted.
They have to \'\'go!\'\' They like to yack.
They want a snack.
They need a drink.
But Simpson\'s Sheep have other plans -- and sleep is not one of them! They think of every excuse to stay awake.
At night, he likes to go to bed.
His feet get tired, his nose gets red.
He plants his corn, and beans, and hay.
