Synopsis
Very Little Sleeping Beauty is eagerly anticipating her birthday party tomorrow, but when bedtime arrives, she's far from sleepy. Despite Daddy's efforts with lullabies, stories, and tickles, she remains wide awake. Venturing through the castle, she encounters Aunty Fairy, who presents her with a spinning wheel. Mistaking it for a steering wheel, she accidentally breaks it, leading to tears and a comforting resolution. Eventually, as dawn approaches, she finally drifts off to sleep, missing her party but waking up just in time for a delightful pyjama celebration that evening.
