Shhh! I am Sleeping
$19.99
A fresh, comical take on sharing a bedroom and trying to sleep – in an unusual tall boardbook format.
Translated by Linda Burgess
Description
Everyone is sound asleep, but when Popov starts snoring, the others wake up. Nono wants a story, Zaza wants to switch beds, Kipp wants a drink of water…Will anyone sleep tonight?
“The dogs in this book come up with every excuse a child will use to postpone bedtime or have fun at night—just like a real sleepover. I find it very funny that Popov is oblivious to the fact he’s kept everyone up all night with his snoring!” —Julia Marshall, publisher

I love board books, so this one is a great hit with me. we all know what it is like to share a room or go on a sleepover with someone who snores, so children will love this story. The idea of speech bubbles is one children love, they can follow who is talking especially as there is a few dogs all trying to sleep. the images are wonderful and I can see children laughing at all the antics of the dogs who scramble from one bed to another. A must for Christmas, would suit younger readers.
