About this title

Review:

"A terrific read-aloud that will have listeners quacking, mooing, and neighing with Sheep's friends each time they wake him up...This is sure to be a storytime favorite alongside Audrey Woods's The Napping House."--School Library Journal, starred review"Beaumont's playful, repetitive text, with its loud animal sounds, will have children chanting along to the beat."--Kirkus Reviews

"Together, Urbanovics comical watercolor illustrations and Beaumonts repetitive rhyming text manage to be both lively and soothingthe perfect combination to help energetic little ones blow off steam and settle down at bedtime."--The Horn Book
