Sleep should be simple at Papa and Nana’s house, but the whole room has other plans. First come the snores, then the rattling lamp, clattering dishes, tumbling shoes, and a bedtime racket big enough to shake the night awake. Told through a child’s amused, affectionate point of view, this lively picture book turns a common family sound into an over-the-top comedy. The noise may be annoying, but it also carries the warm feeling of being safe with people who love you. With playful repetition and expressive illustrations, When Papa Snores is a funny family read-aloud for children who enjoy silly sounds, bedtime stories, and a small mystery about who is really making the biggest noise.
