Official synopsis Publisher
This adorable good night picture book told with bouncy rhyme, cheerful illustration, and the comedic high-fantasy feel of The Princess Bride and Brave is perfect for tucking in rambunctious little jousters, even when they insist on sleeping in their armor.
Once upon a bedtime. . .
It’s time to sleep in the castle: the drawbridge has been pulled up, the dragons are snoring puffs of smoke, and the hounds have settled down by the fire. But the littlest knight in the kingdome isn’t ready to go to bed just yet.
In this gentle, delightful rhyming text punctuated with pleas for “FIVE MORE MINUTES” and declarations that “I’M NOT–YAWN–TIRED,” we see a good night ritual of winding down, brushing teeth, doing one last joust, and, eventually, falling asleep that will help even the most reluctant adventurers put pillows under their heads.
