About This Book
Reach for this book when your child is tossing and turning at night, feeling more curious about the world outside their window than ready for sleep. It is a perfect selection for those 'busy-brain' evenings when a child's imagination is running at full speed and needs a gentle, creative outlet to transition into rest. The story follows a sleepless narrator who encounters a friendly alien visitor, turning a common moment of nighttime restlessness into a rhythmic lesson on hospitality and unexpected friendship. While the science fiction elements provide the fun, the heart of the book lies in how we greet the unknown. It uses rhyming verse to build a bridge between the familiar world of flowers and the vast mystery of outer space, making it an excellent choice for children aged 3 to 8. Parents will appreciate how it validates a child's active imagination while modeling kindness and curiosity toward others who might seem very different from ourselves.
