I Can’t Sleep

Hardback

Two brothers share a room. One is asleep, but the other is WIDE awake. He has a burning question: why do we sleep in beds?

Little brother Magnus can’t fall asleep. His bed is too big, too cold, too lumpy! He also has a very important question to ask his big brother Kasper: why do we sleep in beds? As the two brothers explore all the places they could sleep, and they gradually get more fantastical, we get to go on a bedtime adventure like no other.
