With over half a million copies in print, Mortimer is one of Robert Munsch s most popular and beloved books.
Mortimer is the story .
of a little boy who won t go to sleep at night and who drives his family crazy with his rowdiness .
It] reads as though it was written by a parent driven frantic by one of the contemporary but compulsive stages of childrearing .
It is] of tremendous appeal to kids and parents at the same stage.
