The only problem is Ava is taking so long to fall asleep, the sheep become tired and decide to quit.
Thankfully they promise Ava they will find her a replacement. Chickens, cows, pigs and hippos arrive to help Ava but none can quite manage the art of jumping over a fence as wonderfully as sheep do.
Ava uses a bit of charm and praise and convinces the sheep to get back to work. Sure enough, they do the job.
Beautiful soft and dreamy illustrations with a lovely pace and rhythm, this one is sure to become a bedtime favourite.
