About this book
Mortimer, a spirited boy, refuses to go to sleep, insisting on singing loudly no matter how many times his mother, father, and his many siblings plead with him. When the family's attempts to quiet him fail, even the police arrive, but Mortimer's song continues, creating bedtime chaos. The story combines humor with a gentle reminder about listening to parents while delivering the rhythmic fun of a bedtime protest.
