"This fourth glass of water is just what I need.... / I'm sleepy... good night now... / OH, NO, MOM, I PEED!" Twenty poems with punchy endings speak of bedtime delays, bunk bed injustices, and nighttime snacks. Bold, broadly drawn illustrations match the humor and imagination of the verse. No yawning here: bedtime shirkers will beg to read these again and again.
