Lights Out by Arthur Geisert

Told by his parents that his light must be out at eight o’clock, a young piglet who is afraid of the dark devises an ingenious solution to the problem.

Liz says:

“This almost wordless picture book is told through a sequence of intricate illustrations. A little piglet is told by his parents that he must shut his light off at 8pm. Needing light on to fall asleep, the little piglet engineers a system to have his light go off at 8:25 by which time he his blissfully asleep.”
