whats the name of this childrens book... ?

[stellar]

When I was younger I remember reading a story about two children (brother and sister) having a dream/adventure with dragons and sheep. They couldnt sleep and the girl counted sheep whilst the boy counted dragons and then they went into the sheep/dragon land. Not making much sense am I?

Does anyone know what book I'm talking about? It's really bugging me that I can't remember the title. It was one of my favourites and I want to know if its still available so I can get it for my DD.

thanks

I dont know the book you mean Stellar but have you tried asking at your library. OR even your local bookshop. Thye amaze me when I go in with this really daft descrition of a book that i've heard about and they can always identify it.
Worth a try huh? Good luck.

oooh now you have done it!!......i know which one you mean.,....the river tasted of toothpaste as well???? OMG you got me now!!! I CANT REMEMBER!!!

OOOOOH I GOT IT......NINETY NINE DRAGONS!!!!!

the kids were called ben and beth!! the book is by barbara sleigh. They sell it in waterstones online.....just checked for you!!! Oh i got to get it too now!!!

This is Ninety Nine Dragons.

"Synopsis
Beth and Ben's father suggested counting sheep jumping over a gate, to help them go to sleep. But Ben thought dragons would be much more interesting than ordinary old sheep, so he sent them jumping over the gate instead. "

thank you!

I knew someone out there had to know what I was talking about LOL

off to Waterstones now...
