Excerpt:

You might wonder, what do sheep count to go to sleep? Flowers. One sunflower, two roses, three geraniums, four jasmine, and so on. They also tell tales about rhinoceros, airplanes, rainbows, and other sheep who live far away. And later, once they are asleep, they sometimes have nightmares, and sometimes they fly free among blue, purple, green, and white dreams.
