When you think about counting sheep to send yourself off to sleep, I bet you never imagined the sheep getting unruly and running around your bedroom. What you need is a sheepdog, which, as Downboy is quick to point out, is definitely NOT a cross between a sheep and a dog. But these sheep are tired of being rounded up, and two of them are ready to make a stand…
Everyone it seems has a Lucy… a child who will just not go to sleep, a few will admit that they used to be a Lucy too – but not many.
The Blurb:
Lucy isn't sleepy. She's feeling bouncy and full of energy.
She listens to Granny's bedtime stories, then jumps about pretending to be the characters.
Granny suggests counting sheep, but when the sheep start running around Lucy's bedroom, even Downboy the sheepdog can't round them up.
Finally Lucy gets tired, and finds her own solution to the sheep problem.
