In I Don’t want to Go to Sleep by Dev Petty frog is excited about the coming of winter. Missing out on all the snowy fun upsets Frog.

Frog is excited about autumn and the coming of winter. Owl informs him that frogs hibernate till spring. He will miss out on all the fun that winter brings and that upsets him! This is a hysterically funny twist on the classic “I don’t want to go to bed” dilemma.

Frog comes up with all kinds of reasons why he’s not going to sleep through winter. He devises a clever way to convince his friends to come along for the ride.

Featuring the beloved young frog character I Don’t Want to Be a Frog and his cast of zany animal friends, this new story is sure to bring a smile to every kid who’s ever protested at bedtime. And parents will appreciate a bold new twist on a timeless childhood topic. It’s another surefire crowd pleaser and perfect read-aloud.
