Synopsis

Meet Rex and his dinosaur crew – they’re here to help with everyday toddler challenges!

Rex is a spirited, curious little dinosaur with four older friends who are a guiding influence in his life. In Not Sleepy, Rex sets out to discover how his friends get to sleep. One by one they show him how to brush his teeth, enjoy a relaxing bath, find (and use) his own pee-pee tree and snuggle down with a good book. Enter Big T, Rex’s grandpa and hero, to put sleepy Rex to bed and as he does he reminds Rex that we all need sleep, so we can power up for another day of play!

Packed with interactive fun – lift-the-flaps, and 'opening eye' pop, and a big pop-up ending - Not Sleepy keeps toddlers aged 2 to 4 engaged while gently encouraging positive behaviours. The text has rhyme and repetition, playful dialogue and familiar themes, which make it a book you’ll enjoy reading together again and again.

  • Encourages a good bedtime routine
  • Builds emotional confidence and independence
  • Interactive features keep toddlers engaged
  • Ideal for shared reading and learning through play

Whether you’re finding it hard to settle at night or just want a joyful story to enjoy at bedtimes, Not Sleepy makes bedtime easier to talk about - and a whole lot more fun.
