Reach for this book when your child is using every trick in the book to avoid sleep, or if you need a humorous way to diffuse the tension of a long bedtime routine. Amos tries to count sheep to drift off, but instead of jumping over a fence, the sheep land in his room with a long list of demands. They need fences built, they need things adjusted, and they are quite grumpy about being interrupted. Through these silly interactions, the story explores themes of patience and creative problem solving. It is perfect for children ages 4 to 8 who appreciate absurdist humor. By flipping the script and making the sheep the ones who are demanding and tired, it allows children to see the bedtime struggle from a funny, new perspective while eventually lulling them toward sleep.
