Reach for this book when your child is feeling grumpy from a poor night's sleep or when the house is filled with the frustrations of shared living spaces.

The story follows a tiny mouse whose desperate attempts to get some rest are thwarted by the window-rattling snores of a princess. This rhyming tale is perfect for children aged 4 to 8, offering a lighthearted way to discuss patience and the loss of self-control. It validates the very real feeling of being 'done' with a situation while keeping the tone silly and engaging.
