Sleeping Is Not Easy is a hilarious book about ... sleep. The story compares the sleep habits of Amy with those of several different animals. There are bats sleeping in a cave while dangling from their toes, flamingos asleep standing on one leg, and polar bears trying to get some rest in the middle of a snow storm. Colorful, clever illustrations accompany the story's fun sleep facts and funnier commentary. The parent reading Sleeping Is Not Easy will agree why, through comparison with the uncomfortable sleeping conditions of wild animals, there is no reason for a human child to complain or put up a fight about going to bed. At the same time, the child will enjoy finding out the next humorous thing each animal has to say about its' unique sleep situation. In the end, the question remains open: who has it easier when it come to sleeping, Amy or the animals? The answer doesn't really matter because an enjoyable book has been read and everyone has learned a thing or two.
