When Sheep Sleep


When Sheep Sleep
by Laura Numeroff
ISBN: 0810954699
A little girl and her teddy bear can't sleep so late in the night when she wants to count sheep but they are sleeping she decides to count other animals instead. She pretends to visit different animals in their habits including pigs, cows, and bears only to find that they are sleeping too. By the end of the story she is so tired that she falls asleep herself.
This book is good for teaching rhyming to younger children. It could also be used to help with teaching descriptive words. For example in the story the cats were purring softly on the sofa.
