Farmer Simpson works all day. He plants his corn, and beans, and hay. His feet get tired, his nose gets red. At night, he likes to go to bed. But Simpson's sheep have other plans -- and sleep is not one of them! They think of every excuse to stay awake. They need a drink. They want a snack. They have to ''go!'' They like to yack. 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 Won't Go to Sleep! is a story for every parent who has put a child to bed -- and every child who has creatively resisted.
