Reach for this book when the sun has gone down but your little one's energy hasn't. It is the perfect tool for those nights when the bedtime routine feels like an endless cycle of 'just one more thing' and stall tactics. The story follows a charming little monkey who, despite being clearly tired, finds a dozen clever reasons why he simply isn't ready for sleep yet. Marc Brown, the creator of Arthur, perfectly captures the preschooler's desire for independence and the comfort of nighttime rituals. Parents will appreciate the patient, loving response from the adult figure, which models a gentle way to transition from play to rest. It is a sweet, humorous validation of a common childhood milestone that helps normalize the struggle of winding down while providing a soothing, predictable end to the day.
