By Kate Feiffer, Jules Feiffer (Illustrator)
A restless baby resists sleep as the world around drifts into slumber.
As the sun sets and the stars twinkle, a baby resists the call of sleep. With the moon shining bright and the world around slowly drifting into slumber, from sheep to trees, will the baby finally join them in dreamland? This gentle tale, with its soothing rhythm and calming illustrations, invites young readers to embrace the peaceful journey to sleep.
A baby–finally–falls asleep with the rest of the world in this soothing picture book from Kate and Jules Feiffer. And the sun said, “I’ve gone for the day.When you wake up, I’ll be back to play.” Even though the stars are out and the moon is bright, the baby says, “No, go, sleep!” But as the world around the baby gradually goes to sleep–first the sun, then the moon, then the sheep, tree, and owl–the baby finally, finally, finally falls asleep too. Lyrically written, this lulling text, paired with soothing art, will put even the youngest reader in the mood to visit dreamland.
