"[A] rhythmic, playful romp through a restless child's bedtime routine... a loving, effective lullaby."-Publishers Weekly, STARRED review
A sweet bedtime story from the award-winning author Nikki Grimes about a mother, her little boy, and their imagination-fuelled and animal filled journey to get to sleep.
It's bedtime. But Mommy's little one is not sleepy.
He growls like a bear, he questions like an owl, he tosses his mane like a lion. He hunts for water like a sly wolf, and hides like a snake.
Mommy needs to wrangle her sweet creature for sleep in this endearing and imagination-fuelled journey to bedtime, from Children's Literature Legacy Award winning author Nikki Grimes and acclaimed illustrator Elizabeth Zunon.
"The mother's loving understanding is demonstrated by how she works with her child's rich imagination, never slipping into admonishment. As such, children will engage with the pyjama-clad tot's antics and be soothed by the book's positive tone. A fabulous interpretation of an everyday battle."-Booklist, STARRED review
