A magical bedtime story, honored as a Caldecott Honor Book.
In sincere and imaginative dialogue between a child and her kind and understanding parents, the little girl decides "in a cocoon of sheets, a nest of blankets," she is ready to sleep, warm and strong, just like a tiger.
The lyrical narrative echoes a Runaway Bunny-like cadence: "Does everything in the world go to sleep?" the little girl asks.
Artist Pamela Zagarenski's rich, luminous mixed-media paintings effervesce with charming details that non-yet-sleepy children can examine for hours. A rare gem.
Mary Logue has written more than twenty books for children. She lives on the Mississippi with the writer Pete Hautman. Visit her at www.marylogue.com.
