Lauren Child, I Am Not Sleepy and I Will Not Go To Bed

Orchard Books, 9781846168840 | Suggested age range: 3-5

Charlie does everything he can to get his little sister Lola to go to bed, and she makes it very hard indeed. She says she never gets tired. She likes to stay up colouring, scribbling, bouncing and - most of all - chattering. So Charlie plays some clever tricks on his little sister and, in the end, he manages to get her into bed. Captivating illustrations give an entertaining background to this amusing version of a familiar story.
