Justin Fights Sleep is a funny and fantastical story about a boy who has decided that sleep is not for him and how he learns from the consequences of his decision. According to Parents Magazine, sleep fulfills several biological and mental imperatives including promoting growth, protecting the heart, controlling the appetite, boosting the immune system, reducing the chance for accidents, increasing attention span, and improving learning at school. Let Justin's story be a fun and gentle introduction into the importance of sleep hygiene for your family!
"This very short book is an opportunity for parents to help children begin to learn that sleep is necessary. It provides us with the energy to enjoy our awake time activities. Every child, teen and adult remembers the excitement experienced the night before a special event. It is truly a skill to be able to self-soothe and relax. Justin's story will be a wonderful addition to your bedtime story time routine."
