Everyone resists bedtime-even barnyard animals

" 'A story, a story!' the young bunnies roar. And just as it ends, all the bunnies beg: 'More!' " Sound familiar? It turns out no one wants to go to sleep, not the chickens, bunnies, sheep, or fishes in this clever bedtime romp. Each animal has a different bedtime and a different strategy for staying up all night.

In the morning, at the crow of the rooster, an exciting new day begins and everyone is glad to have the energy to greet it. A surefire read-aloud bedtime hit from two exciting newcomers.
