This is a bedtime story that has it all: humor, playful language, and a soothing combination of rhyme, rhythm, and repetition woven together with compelling illustrations that have the surrealistic edge of the dream world. Move over, Goodnight Moon. There's a new star on the bedtime bookshelf.

This cozy story is a lovely addition to picture books about bedtime...An ideal choice to lull a child to sleep or as a selection for a bedtime-themed storytime.
