Synopsis

Little Owl is adamant he doesn't need a babysitter—he's not a baby! When Pinny the babysitter arrives, Little Owl devises a series of elaborate bedtime rituals to delay sleep, including a lengthy story, a hot chocolate with forty marshmallows, and bidding goodnight to all his countless toys. His final, most ambitious request? To have the moon by his bedside. This humorous and reassuring tale is perfect for easing children's anxieties about being left with a babysitter.
