Go to Sleep - From Amazon

Go To Sleep!

Tansy the sheep can’t go to sleep. She’s forgotten how to do it! But when she follows the barn owl’s advice and starts counting sheep, she realises that something is wrong … The award-winning bedtime story with a humorous twist that children will love!

My Review 

With beautiful illustrations of (OK not so) scary night-time scenes that intrude on Tansy’s sleep, this is a fun children’s book.

Counting sheep to go to sleep is not working for Tansy the sheep as she gets the whole flock in a twist over her methods. It’s a simple yet amusing story that’s perfect for young inquisitive minds that like to problem solve. Guessing the flaw in Tansy’s methodology draws out the fun 🙂

Author Bio

Marion Adams has been writing for as long as she can remember, usually for fun and sometimes for money as well. She started her career as an in-house copywriter with a publisher and now works as a freelance proofreader and editor. It’s her dream job because she’s paid to read all day (and eat dark chocolate). Over the years, she’s written all kinds of things for both adults and children, some serious and some less so, with published work including magazine stories, articles, poems, plays and non-fiction books.

Marion lives in Devon, UK, and when she’s not reading or writing (or eating dark chocolate), she loves going for walks on the wild moors where her picture book Go To Sleep! is set.

My Review

When Sarah is teased about her shadow, she wishes it away, but then she goes to a summer camp and realises the value of her lost shadow. How will she cope?

With lovely drawings and a moral message between the prose, this is a lovely little story about valuing the good things in life.
