There must be a way to get a sheep to sleep!

All the sheep are falling asleep--except Russell. What's a sheep to do? Count stars... Count feet...

Perfect for naptime or bedtime, this New York Times bestselling picture book is from Splat the Cat author-artist Rob Scotton.

Your sheep will giggle, and you will agree with the New York Times Book Review: "A hilarious woolly insomniac. Adorably funny. A runaway hit."
