| Publisher Description: 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? |
