A little girl makes up all kinds of excuses not to go to bed. But what if they’re not excuses…? A sweet bedtime story with a twist at the end!
When a little girl goes to bed, she finds a rather big problem – there’s a cow in her bed! When her father goes to her room, the cow has gone and her father tells her to go to sleep. Later on that night, the cow comes back, together with a card-playing duck and a counting elephant! Is the little girl just stalling? Either way, it looks like no one is getting much sleep tonight!

Told through dialogue, the narrative is a little one-note, though very entertaining, and the expressive illustrations bounce it happily along. Martín’s scribbly illustrations are reminiscent of Greg Pizzoli’s style.
