Reach for this book when your child is tossing, turning, and feeling frustrated that sleep just won't come. It provides a perfect outlet for the restless energy of a child whose mind is still racing while the rest of the house is quiet. Rather than a quiet lullaby, this is a humorous acknowledgement of how difficult it can be to force yourself to relax. Sylvie is a young sheep who tries her mother's advice to count sheep, but the sheep she imagines are far too busy having fun to stand still. Through clever wordplay and detailed illustrations, the story validates the feeling of exasperation that comes with insomnia. It is ideal for children aged 4 to 8 who appreciate a bit of wit and need to know that their bedtime struggles are a normal, even funny, part of growing up.
