The Little Girl Who Didn't Want to Go to Bed

The internet’s “World’s Best Father," award-winning photographer Dave Engledow, makes his picture book debut with The Little Girl Who Didn’t Want to Go to Bed, a hilarious, eye-popping, photographic bedtime tale that’s sure to make bedtime a lot more fun.

There was once a little girl who wouldn’t go to bed. So, one night, she decided to stay awake—drawing pictures...reading books...blowing bubbles. Uh-oh!

What’s a sleepy little girl to do when she’s stayed up all night and has a big day ahead of her?

Dave Engledow first made waves on the internet with a picture he took of himself groggily cradling his daughter, Alice, like a football and squirting milk from her bottle into a “World’s Best Father” mug of coffee. Dave’s fathering adventures only got sillier, and soon he had enough pictures to publish an adult trade book, Confessions of the World’s Best Father. His work has been featured by People, GQ, the Washington Post, BuzzFeed, USA Today, the Today show, Time, and many others.

Now Dave brings the playful spirit of his whimsical photography to his debut picture book—a bedtime tale that’s about not going to bed at all!
