What's This Book About

Publisher Summary

“With a shimmering radiance and gentle tone, this title will be welcome in every children’s collection.” –School Library Journal Baby, happy baby, I’ll sing down the stars till they dance right into your room. It’s bedtime for a drowsy little one, and the whole family takes turns cuddling and singing this sleepy baby to bed. One by one the baby’s sister, grandmother, father, and mother call on the winds, the clouds, the stars, and the moon to sail and rock and delight their little one until dreams take over. Author Atinuke and illustrator Angela Brooksbank reunite for this gentle picture book–based on a song that Atinuke’s father sang to her in Nigeria–to evoke the warmth and tenderness of wrapping a child in nighttime’s embrace and celebrate the moments families share with their sleepy babies at bedtime.
