«Pai! Não consigo dormir» is a children's book by Michael Foreman, published by Editorial Caminho in hardback (32 pages, in Portuguese).
Little Panda can't get to sleep; counting sheep doesn't help. His father suggests trying cows, pigs or elephants. The final fold-out page shows how many animals he counts and whether he finally falls asleep. Michael Foreman's illustrations recreate the starry night sky and sheep jumping over the rainbow.
Original title: «Dad! I Can't Sleep!» (1994). This Caminho edition is the Portuguese translation, with illustrations by Michael Foreman himself.
Suitable for young children and for reading aloud as a bedtime story, especially if they struggle to fall asleep.
