THE TORTOISE WHO WANTED TO SLEEP
ALIAGA SANCHEZ, ROBERTO
The tortoise is very sleepy and is going to sleep
all winter. When he?s already in bed, after going
through the ritual for him to sleep (brushing
his teeth, putting on his night gown,
straightening the sheets?), someone knocks
at the door. They?re his friends with presents
to keep him company through the long sleep
that awaits him. The tortoise thanks them
for their kind attention, but he feels sleepier
and sleepier and he only wants to be left alone.
A story to help understand bed-time
as something pleasant and to complete the ritual
by telling a story before being overcome by sleep.
