Who said bedtime was hard? Dad’s got bedtime sorted! Lenny and the twins have a bath without water spilling over, brush their teeth without toothpaste spraying onto the mirror, and go to sleep straight after their story. Perfect!

Dad can finally settle down to his dinner. But then –

I’m too cold! I’m too hot!

The window is making funny noises!

I’m not tired!

From one of Australia’s best-loved comedians and children’s entertainers Jimmy Rees comes a story about the bedtime excuses that families everywhere will know all too well.
