Beloved author Rowboat Watkins's vivid comic-style take on a universal dilemma―bedtime



New from the beeping brain of Rowboat Watkins, award-wining author of much-loved children's picture books including Rude Cakes, Mabel: A Mermaid Fable, and Big Bunny. This comic-style adventure follows the Go-Go Guys from beep-beep-bed to the Moon and beep-beep-back again.

So . . . what do Go-Go Guys do best?

Well . . . GO-GO-GO! They never rest.

Because their brains go

BEEP!

BEEP!

BEEP!

They simply will not go to sleep.

Will the Go-Go Guys ever STOP? Kids and parents who know how hard it is to wind down for bed will enjoy every moment of this zany rhyming read-aloud that will elicit endless giggles!





GOODNIGHT ALREADY: Parents and kids alike will recognize the perennial and universal dilemma that comes with bedtime, or any time kids need to be quiet and still.
