Reach for this book when the nightly bedtime routine has become a tug of war and you need to lower the tension with a dose of humor. This clever story validates a child's desire to stay awake by framing sleep as a challenge to be conquered through sheer willpower. It playfully warns the reader that if they see a yawning dog or a cozy blanket, they are in grave danger of falling into the bedtime trap. The book uses reverse psychology to transform a stressful power struggle into a shared game. It is perfect for toddlers and preschoolers who are beginning to assert their independence. By the final page, the natural biological response of yawning usually wins, leading to a much softer, more cooperative transition to sleep.
