Counting Sheep is a Class 12 English chapter from the Lapwing textbook for GSEB students. The humorous story follows Dr. Shalini Singh and a sheep-dog named Miko, who suffers from insomnia despite spending his days counting sheep.
Dr. Shalini tries different methods to help Miko sleep, but finally discovers that the real problem is the stress of constantly controlling the sheep. The story uses humour to explore stress, freedom, responsibility, observation, and the importance of understanding the real cause of a problem.
