The bed in a napping house slowly finds more and more sleeping creatures pile upon it until the bed breaks and everyone wakes up.
This is a perfect wind-down story and a great introduction to repatition.

The Napping House is a fun and funny book, with great illustrations and a repeating poem.

It might be fun to see the dog in less pain for the full 5 Stars. ( )
