Book Synopsis

A gorgeous, funny, tongue-twisting picture book by two incredibly talented creators. Perfect for bedtime reading.

Do you think the sleepy sheep will sleep on top of this wild and windy hill
Baah!
No-o-o, this windy hill is far too high and wild for a sleepy sheep to sleep on!
Do you think the sleepy sheep will sleep deep down in this steep and stony valley?
Baah!
No-o-o, this valley is far too deep, steep, and stony for a sleepy sheep to sleep in!

So where will the sleepy sheep end up sleeping? A delight from beginning to end - bedtime reading at its best.
