![]() Sams distinctive storytelling voice builds on his rich storytelling. ![]() Anita Jeram's watercolor renderings of this endearing pair add sweet humor to a finely crafted book. Sam McBratney is the author of the acclaimed picture book Guess How Much I Love You. Sam McBratney's soft, repetitive text is reminiscent of classic tales by Margaret Wise Brown (Goodnight Moon, The Runaway Bunny). Child Magazine The perfect bedtime story for sleepy little ones. Parent An extraordinary children's book that captures the unique dialogue between a parent and child. USA Today A well-written gem with sprightly illustrations. Booklist (starred review) Every parent will relate. There's not a wrong note in this tender tale, which should become an endearing bedtime favorite - right up there with Goodnight Moon. Publishers Weekly (starred review) An endearing nursery game is beautifully revitalized in this comforting, sleepy-time picture book. Effused with tenderness, McBratney's wise, endearing, and droll story is enriched by the near-monochromatic backdrop of Jeram's pen-and-wash artwork, rendered earthy tones of moss, soft brown, and gray for a visually quieting effect just right for that last soothing tale before sleep. ![]()
