So Tired, So Wide Awake

It's bedtime. Hedgehog, Fox, Donkey, Pelican and Crocodile are so tired! But Seal needs to use the bathroom--slip slap slip, out the door. Crocodile forgot to clean those sharp teeth--shlurf shlurf, out the door. And Pelican is thirsty . . . One by one the animals climb out of bed, until everyone is piled in the child's bed for a last goodnight kiss. Oof, that's a heavy pile! What happens now? Susanne Strasser's snowballing animal stories that children love are bestsellers in multiple languages. This funny in-and-out-of-bed story ends with a timely fart joke to start the fun all over again.

Susanne Strasser studied communication design and illustration in Munich and London. She is the author and illustrator of many successful picture books, including this best-selling series of board books about animal friends. She lives with her family in Munich.
