Shhh! I'm Sleeping by De Monfreid Dorothe
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?Sales Points: Tall format makes it really stand out. Told completely in dialogue, making it lots of fun to read aloud or in groupsgreat potential for acting out the story, too. Rewards close observation, with lots to notice in the big personalities of these funny little dogs.
"Eight dogs in a pair of quadruple-level bunk beds make for a raucous bedtime shuffle in this clever, delightfully illustrated oversize comics-style board book" -- The New York Times (US)
"The dogs’ prickly personalities, de Monfried’s enthusiastic cartooning, and an innately goofy premise deliver laughs with every page turn." -- Starred Review, Publishers Weekly (US)
"While minimal speech bubbles help convey some action, much of the plot is to be discovered in the funny, detail-rich illustrations, which children will enjoy poring over again and again." -- Kirkus Reviews
