Bookroo's summary

In a house where sleep is a distant memory, a family faces the ultimate challenge: a baby who never tires. As the clock strikes 3 a.m., lullabies and cuddles fail, and the little one throws a midnight dance party. With binkies flying and cribs climbed, even the neighbors wonder if this baby will ever sleep. Join this exhausted family on a hilarious journey through sleepless nights, where every parent and sibling will find laughter and camaraderie in the chaos. Will they ever catch a break, or is this just the beginning of endless wakefulness?

From the publisher

Big brothers or sisters who have a noisy new baby in the house will feel seen in this hilarious new book about the uncanny ability of babies to stay awake FOREVER–written by a mom who’s been there. They tried lullabies, they tried cuddles, they tried soothing words. But now it’s 3 a.m. and the baby has achieved a new level of consciousness. Throwing binkies, climbing the crib . . . Is this baby going to stay awake forever?!? (Even the neighbor would like to know.) Parents and siblings of new babies will share some BIG laughs together as they follow a VERY tired family trying to get just a few minutes of rest while their precious one jumps, pounds, yells, and even throws a 1 a.m. dance party. It’s the perfect baby shower gift for soon-to-be-big-siblings and their parents as they prepare for the new arrival.
