Dr Seuss wrote a book called the Sleep Book, and while its not one of his better known works, in our opinion here in the Nourse home, its his best work. This book is requested night after night, is packed in the suitcase with us for trips, and I even recorded myself reading it (among others) for Hannah while I was in Argentina. It never gets old. When she was younger, I thought it was written with a magical number of words, because she always fell asleep... we never finished the book together. I had to read the end for myself, and I did, because it's that witty and delightful! Now she stays awake, reciting the story (word for word) and counting sleepers. I'll miss this book when she no longer needs to read it!
