Reach for this book when your child's bedtime stalling is driven by a deep sense of responsibility or a 'busy heart' that cannot stop worrying about others. While it presents as a simple story about a new pet, it is a profound tool for children who experience nighttime anxiety disguised as caretaking. Donald has brought a rabbit in from the cold, but his own need for rest is interrupted by constant trips to check on his friend. The story beautifully mirrors the way young children project their own fears onto others, using the rabbit's well-being as a proxy for their own security. It is an ideal choice for ages 3 to 7, offering a gentle model for how to transition from high-alert caregiving to peaceful, trusting sleep.
