In the past, people slept closer together, and comfort was not a concern. However, it seems much more difficult today to fall asleep. And then to stay asleep! There are many reasons for sleeplessness: worries from the past or anxieties about the coming day keep us awake, and physical discomfort can add to the problem. In times of constant news flow and endless distractions, fewer and fewer people manage to find true rest. This reading book is aimed at those who are awake: the authors share stories about falling asleep in the family home, childhood nightmares, getting up in the middle of the night, night owls and disturbances in the big city, nights in nature, and midnight trips to the bookshelf. By the end, after reading the stories and poems, one might even be able to fall asleep.
