A beautiful story with a gentle mindfulness message – ideal for bedtime, and especially helpful for little ones who have trouble going to sleep.

Arlo the lion is exhausted. He just can't drop off, no matter what he tries. It's either too hot, or too cold; too loud or too quiet. But then he meets Owl. She can sleep through the day, which isn't easy when most other animals are awake! Will Arlo ever get any rest? Perhaps his new friend has some special tricks she can teach him . . .

Arlo the Lion Who Couldn't Sleep is a gorgeous story from the Kate Greenaway Medal winner Catherine Rayner. This audio edition of the story includes a read-along track – perfect for listening to at home, in the car or at bedtime.

Critic Reviews

Does your child have trouble falling off to sleep? This dreamy bedtime book about an exhausted lion who just can’t drop off to sleep is the perfect antidote with its gentle mindfulness message
Rayner breathes new life into the bedtime story with this delectably dreamy book, with a gentle mindfulness message...I think Arlo, realised in tawny gold watercolours, is one of her finest creations yet
A gorgeous new story with a calming message from the Kate Greenaway Medal winning author illustrator
Like all of Catherine's beautifully illustrated books, Arlo is completely breath-taking! From start to finish, this story is an utter delight to delve into (The PictureBook Box)
This is a beautifully illustrated tale with a soft, dusk-like palette that blends Arlo's gentle yellows and browns into the tranquil landscapes of wide, evening skies - almost as if the pictures themselves are willing Arlo to let go and settle into sleep. In fact, the whole story, with it's gentle pacing and dreamy repetition, is a perfectly pitched winding-down story for busy children at bedtime (Books for Topics)
The Greenaway medal winner returns with another beautifully illustrated offering; this time the main character is tired and grumpy Arlo, in this tale that is perfect for bedtimes or any winding down time...Young children will enjoy the repetition of the verse throughout the story, and it is bound to become a favorite in households at bedtime or for those moments in school or nursery when some calm is required
