Publisher's Synopsis

A charming gift for anyone prone to insomnia

'The dilemma my friends suppose me to be in,' writes the author of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, 'has, for its two horns, the endurance of a sleepless night, and the adoption of some recipe for inducing sleep.' In this delightful book - the perfect gift for all insomniacs - are collected a splendid variety of entertainments devised to help pass 'the wakeful hours'. Ranging from puzzles, rhymes and limericks to simple number problems and calming calculations; from composing rhymes to planning dreams, here is a feast of intriguing activities guaranteed to keep you entertained as you search for the elusive rabbit-hole of a good night's sleep.
