I Don't Want to Sleep Tonight
by Deborah Norville Golden Books New York, NY $12.99/hardcover 12 pages
What started as a poem written by Deborah Norville (winner of two national Emmy awards, anchor of the syndicated newsmagazine, “Inside Edition” and author of Back On Track) for her son, to help him overcome nighttime terrors, is now a well-written, interactive children’s book.
Many children find it hard to go to sleep at night when monsters are lurking about in the dark. Norville’s book helps these children make the exciting discovery that television and movies are often the reason they see bad monsters...and that reading books brings them much sweeter dreams.
The book is of sturdy construction with fully-illustrated, lift-up and pop-up pages designed to hold a child’s attention and deliver its message in an easy-to-understand manner. Children take an immediate liking and look forward to either having the book read to them or reading it themselves—to the point that they soon have it memorized.
