Brief Description:
For anyone who has ever craved sleep–and anyone too full of energy to
settle down–a comedy from Bob Shea, creator of the popular Dinosaur vs.
series, and singular illustrator Jarvis. It’s sleepy time for Lion and
Penguin. Correction: it should be sleepy time for Lion and Penguin, but
Lion’s eyes aren’t tired, and his ears would like a story. Penguin,
however, is tired and nods off into sweet candy dreams–until a noise wakes
him. “Oh, are you awake?” asks Lion sweetly, seated before a drum set.
“Let’s have that story, then!” “Not now. It is time to close your eyes and
dream dreams.” And so it goes, with an ever-more-disgruntled Penguin trying
to nod off while an exuberant Lion innocently practices his drumming,
bounces on his squeaky trampoline, and munches on his crunchy chips. Will
Penguin need to resort to extreme measures to get his friend to sleep, or
has the answer been there all along? Bob Shea’s signature wit, delivered
only in dialogue, and Jarvis’s unassuming, retro art and knack for visual
humor are sure to delight young readers–and their caregivers–whether at
naptime, bedtime, or anytime.
