Jim McMullan.
Puzzled that his horses are napping on the job, Farmer spies on them one night and discovers that they spend their evenings partying. Not only do his scolds do no good, but his ongoing spying leads to the book's unsurprising punch line: now Farmer is falling asleep on the job, too. Both rhymes and watercolors are just funny enough.
