Synopses & Reviews
Baby can't sleep, so Daddy says: Count sheep! And toddlers learning to count these adorably mischievous animals can count on great entertainment. A thoroughly delightful, fancifully illustrated bedtime story that's sure to become a favorite. Counting sheep has never been so entertaining, thanks to one-of-a-kind art and a charming rhyming text.
Tired Mommy and Daddy want Baby to sleep; but wide-awake Baby would rather play. A good night kiss? That doesn't work. Rock-a-bye in papa's arms? Oh, no: while he waits for Baby's eyes to close, the lively boy grab's Daddy's nose! So now it's time to try something new. Counting sheep is lots of fun--soon you'll be asleep my son.
Instead, the fluffy, funny creatures lead Baby on a whimsical trip where the animals strum guitars, take a ride in a jeep, splash in the pool, and dance the night away. From one to ten, they keep on coming, with antics galore.
In the end, the sheep really do the trick...for Mom and Dad, anyway! Youngsters will giggle with pleasure at seeing Baby get the upper hand.
