It Simply Can't Be Bedtime

Bedtimeroutines get a jolt of silliness and creativity when a dad anddaughter face off in this timeless scenario. When dad saysit’s bedtime and his daughter strongly disagrees, her stuffyhilariously comes to her defense.

Lady Pigsworth is quickto point out the many ongoing projects that just can’t beabandoned, the danger of sleeping in a butterfly costume, thealarming spinach stuck in the girl's teeth, and more. Eachover-the-top declaration of why it can’t possibly be bedtime yetleads the group through common bedtime routines in animated andheartwarming scenes—until Lady Pigsworth’s demands reachquestionable heights, even to the little girl, so she takes mattersinto her own hands to get both of them into bed.

Dreamyillustrations and the hilarious Lady Pigsworth make for a perfectread-aloud that will leave any kid content to shut their eyes, atleast for a little bit.
