But Simpson's sheep have other plans -- and sleep is not one of them! They think of every excuse to stay awake. They need a drink. They want a snack. They have to ''go!'' They like to yack. Will poor Simpson ever find a way to lull his sheep to sleep? Illustrated with soft pastel drawings that are both silly and soothing, Simpson's Sheep Won't Go to Sleep! is a story for every parent who has put a child to bed-and every child who has creatively resisted. Hardcover. 32 pages. Full color throughout. Ages 4 to 8. 8-7/8 inches wide x 11-1/4 inches high. Author and illustrator Bruce Arant -- a father of three -- writes from personal experience of ''tucking-in'' at bedtime, when he has fielded all possible childhood excuses to stay awake just a little bit longer. Prior to becoming a full-time writer and illustrator, Arant enjoyed a career of nearly 20 years in the magazine and custom publishing industry, where he held a variety of editorial and creative positions. He lives in Omaha, Nebraska.
