Quit Waking Us Up, We're Trying to Sleep! (Hardcover)

Children are charmed by this humorous tale of a rather sleepless night! They quickly recognize and actively respond to its rhythmic pace and poetic structure, making it fun to read out loud and read along!Quit Waking Us Up. We're Trying To Sleep! was originally written for a birthday party for the author's nieces, Morgan and Kristyn. They had a pajama party and everyone wore their pajamas. It was the author's job to come up with a birthday bedtime story and this is the result. The names in the book are names of the children who attended the party. The story is about the girls trying to get a good night's sleep before their birthday party. All of their friends keep trying to wake them up. It ends with a big party with all of their friends in attendance. The children at the birthday party particularly enjoyed yelling out the last line on each page. The author hopes all readers will enjoy this book as much as these children did.
