A bedtime standoff with Mortimer

Mortimer’s refusal to go to sleep turns bedtime into a family-wide tussle, with the young boy’s rowdiness at the center. The description frames the story around a familiar challenge of family life: a child resisting the end of the day and the adults trying to manage the disruption. Its humorous-stories classification points to a comic take on that domestic conflict, while the short 24-page format keeps the book compact for a shared reading session.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Children ages 4–8 who enjoy humorous stories about family life
  • Families looking for a short picture book centered on bedtime resistance

Book overview

With over half a million copies in print, Mortimer is one of Robert Munsch's most popular and beloved books.

Mortimer is the story "... of a little boy who won't go to sleep at night and who drives his family crazy with his rowdiness ... [It] reads as though it was written by a parent driven frantic by one of the contemporary but compulsive stages of childrearing ... [It is] of tremendous appeal to kids and parents at the same stage." --Globe and Mail
