Bookroo's summary

In the jungle, it's bedtime, but baby panda, elephant, orangutan, and leopard are missing. Their mamas embark on a gentle quest, singing lullabies to coax their playful little ones out of hiding. As the babies giggle and sneak around, staying just out of reach, the night becomes a tender game of hide and seek. Will the mamas manage to gather their mischievous children for a peaceful night's sleep? This enchanting tale, woven with rhymes and vibrant illustrations, captures the warmth of a mother's love and the playful spirit of childhood.

From the publisher

From bestselling author Kate McMullan, a sweet rhyming bedtime story celebrating mothers’ love

It’s bedtime in the jungle, but baby panda, elephant, orangutan, and leopard are nowhere to be found. Their mamas set out to look for their wayward little ones, calling them to bed with a soft lullaby. But look! The baby animals are crawling, creeping, hiding, and giggling, playfully staying just one step ahead of their loving mamas.

Kate McMullan’s lilting rhymes pair perfectly with Tao Nyeu’s rich illustrations, creating a dreamy picture book that is a perfect new baby or mother’s day gift.
