From the publisher

Baby animals go to bed in this cozy story for fans of Margaret Wise Brown’s The Runaway Bunny. As a little mouse tosses and turns in his bed of dried grasses, he imagines that other animals must surely have better sleeping arrangements. A bird’s nest, a kangaroo’s pouch, a polar bear’s den–they all sound so cozy . . . at first. But a patient mother mouse helps her little one see why his home is best for him. This mother and child’s loving banter suggests a game that parents and toddlers will quickly add to their own bedtime routines–ensuring sweet dreams for all. “Little ones will enjoy hearing this story as a gentle nap or bedtime tale or as a delightful introduction to animals and their babies.” –School Library Journal
