Description

See below for English description.

Tous les amis d’Oiseau se préparent à aller au lit. Oiseau, lui, n’a pas sommeil. Ses ailes veulent battre, ses pattes veulent courir. Il essaie de convaincre ses amis de jouer avec lui, mais ceux-ci sont trop fatigués. Ils proposent à Oiseau de tenter de l’endormir en lui lisant une histoire, en lui prêtant une peluche ou en lui chantant une berceuse, mais rien à faire, Oiseau veut jouer.

 

Les parents d’enfants qui ne veulent jamais aller au lit reconnaîtront à coup sûr leur petit dans le personnage charmant un peu mélodramatique d’Oiseau!

 

Oiseau's friends are settling in for the night. But Oiseau is not tired. His wings want to flap. His legs want to run. All of him wants to play! When will he ever go to sleep?!

 

Spirited kids and exhausted parents will laugh their way to happy dreams in this hilarious and relatable take on bedtime, featuring the lovable hero of Gros grognon, Gros bobo, and Gros gâté.

 

Original title: Sleepy Bird
