Description
"Everyone's favourite frantic insect is back . . . this time trying to sleep." -- Kirkus Reviews
This laugh-out-loud companion to The Very Impatient Caterpillar and The Little Butterfly That Could is perfect for bedtime--or any time!--and will delight fans of Mo Willems' Don't Let the Pigeon Stay Up Late!
"Who needs to sleep at night, anyway?
There's so much I'd miss!
I'll just be nocturnal too.
What do you think?"
"I think we need to get you back to sleep."
Readers will laugh themselves silly as they learn to find their inner calm and settle for sleep--even when they wake in the night--while also discovering the difference between nocturnal and diurnal animals.
