Description

A bedtime fairy tale picture book to help the most restless of little ones fall asleep, from #1 New York Times bestselling author Susan Verde and illustrator Jay Fleck.
 
Once upon a time there lived a very busy princess who never had trouble falling asleep. Until one night, when a pesky pea changed all that!
 
Without sleep, the princess feels cranky, clumsy, and filled with worry that she’ll never sleep again. Will this tossy-turny princess ever be able to calm her mind, relax her body, and finally get some rest?
 
Book 2 of the Feel-Good Fairy Tales series is a soothing spin on a classic fairytale giving restless little readers and listeners the tools they need to help them drift off to dreamland. Includes exercises to help you fall asleep.
 
“This will be a welcome bedtime tale for the youngsters who aren’t settled by just a kiss and a glass of water, and their caretakers will likely appreciate the gentle introduction to good sleep hygiene.” —Bulletin of the Center for Children’s Books
