Rupert the rooster struggles with his early morning duties, longing for a chance to sleep in. When his friend Sherman the Sheep offers to take over, it seems like the perfect solution. But as the sun rises, Rupert discovers that relying on Sherman might lead to more trouble than he anticipated. Will Rupert ever find the rest he craves, or will his plan backfire in hilarious ways? Dive into this delightful tale of friendship and unexpected twists, where the quest for a little extra shut-eye turns into a comedic adventure.
From the publisher
A rooster who just wants to sleep in gets a little help from a friend in this laugh-out-loud picture book from New Yorker artist Mike Twohy. Rupert the rooster knows that every morning when the sun comes up he must cock-a-doodle-do–no matter what. But Rupert is terrible at waking up! And even worse, he can never, ever sleep in. Life just isn’t fair. When his friend Sherman the Sheep volunteers for the job, everything is perfect. Or is it?
