Marc Just Couldn't Sleep is a whimsical picture book for children ages 3 to 5. Marc can't fall asleep because he is worried and scared of just about everything. He is worried a giant mosquito will fly into his room and bite him. So his mom makes him a pair of mosquito-proof pajamas. He is also worried that the moon will melt and the world will go dark. His mom gives him a pair of glasses with glow in the dark lenses and writes the moon a letter warning it not to melt. But even after his mom shoos away monsters, witches, nightmares, and ghosts, Marc is still scared and can't fall asleep! The final solution to help Marc fall asleep warmly shows the love between mother and child.
Both the illustrations and the text of Marc Just Couldn't Sleep highlight an incredibly endearing and adorable little boy and the strong, patient, playful mother who would do anything for him. This story will deeply touch children's hearts and stir their imaginations. Reading Marc Just Couldn't Sleep can easily become a new favorite bedtime ritual for the family.
Marc Just Couldn't Sleep was originally published in Spain by Editorial Kókinos in 2001.

Aww, Marc is adorable!
He is!!!!!!!!
By the way, in the first sentence, that's supposed to be "picture book," not "picture books." Sorry about that, folks!
Hi My name is Bruno Rico' just want to share my experience with the world on how i got my love back and saved my marriage... I was married for 7years with 2kids and we lived happily until things started getting ugly and we had fights and arguments almost every time... it got worse at a point that she filed for divorce... I tried my best to make her change her mind & stay with me cause i loved her with all my heart and didn't want to loose her but everything just didn't work out... she moved out of the house and still went ahead to file for divorce... I pleaded and tried everything but still nothing worked. The breakthrough came when someone introduced me to this wonderful, great spell caster who eventually helped me out... I have never been a fan of things like this but just decided to try reluctantly cause I was desperate and left with no choice... He did special prayers and used roots and herbs... Within 7 days she called me and was sorry for all the emotional trauma she had cost me, moved back to the house and we continue to live happily, the kids are happy too and we are expecting our third child. I have introduced him to a lot of couples with problems across the world and they have had good news... Just thought I should share my experience cause I strongly believe someone out there need's it... You can email him via eromosalelovespell@outlook.com Don't give up just yet, the different between 'Ordinary' & 'Extra-Ordinary' is the 'Extra' so make extra effort to save your marriage/relationship if it's truly worth it. you can also call (Dr Eromosale) on +2347034673139.
