Mara Bergman's book "Oliver Who Would Not Sleep" is a great springboard for various classroom topics across different learning areas. The theme of bed time lends itself to a range of subjects. For example, Oliver's love of night time and the imaginative monster-filled illustrations can be used to initiate a discussion about dreams and fears, helping to promote and explore areas of the personal and social education curriculum.
