Review Quotes: 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.
--Publishers Weekly (starred review)
An
endearing nursery game is beautifully revitalized in this
comforting, sleepy-time picture book. . . . There's not a wrong note in this tender tale, which should become an endearing bedtime favorite -- right up there with Goodnight Moon.
--Booklist (starred review)
Every parent will relate.
--USA Today
A well-written gem with sprightly illustrations.
--L.A. Parent
An
extraordinary children's book that captures the unique dialogue between a parent and child.
--Child Magazine
The perfect bedtime story for sleepy little ones. Sam McBratney's soft, repetitive text is reminiscent of classic tales by Margaret Wise Brown (Goodnight Moon, The Runaway Bunny). . . . Anita Jeram's watercolor renderings of this endearing pair add
sweet humor to a finely crafted book.
