About This Book
Reach for this book when the house is vibrating with the energy of a child who simply cannot stop jumping, wiggling, or making noise after the lights go out. It provides a playful yet effective way to discuss how one person's 'fun' can impact the peace and well-being of everyone else living under the same roof. Through a rhythmic and slightly absurd lens, children see the consequences of their late-night antics without feeling lectured. The story follows Little Miss Terry, whose persistent bed-jumping creates a rhythmic squeak that travels through the floors of her tall house, disturbing a cast of eccentric characters and eventually awakening a grumpy troll in the basement. The troll's intervention is more helpful than scary, turning a moment of chaos into a lesson on consideration. It is a fantastic choice for parents of children aged 3 to 8 who are navigating bedtime boundaries and learning about the social contract of family life.
