It's bedtime for ten little owls but they're not tired! Mama Owl needs some help to get Speedy Owl, Tall Owl, Small Owl, Hooty Owl, Cheeky Owl, Wise Owl, Hoppity Owl, Snoozy Owl, Wide-awake Owl and Teeny Tiny Owl to sleep. This sweet interactive picture book gets young readers to help with a busy bedtime. Can they flap their arms and hop around to show the little owls how to get tired, and sing the restless owls a soothing lullaby? And don't forget beak brushing! In this engaging read-aloud book, children will delight in putting ten adorable owls through their bedtime routine as they are asked to clap, call and count. Grown-ups will smile wryly as their little ones are left yawning and ready to sleep too. Katja Alves's fun story and One Christmas in Our Building illustrator Andrea Stegmaier's characterful artwork combine in a brilliantly cosy bedtime book.
