Reach for this book when your family operates on a schedule that doesn't match the rest of the world. It is a perfect choice for children who feel the sting of a parent leaving for work just as the sun goes down, or for those who need to understand that love remains constant even when routines are flipped. The story follows a young girl and her father as they swap roles: he tucks her in at night before his shift starts, and she 'tucks' him in when he returns home in the morning. With its gentle, poetic rhythm and warm illustrations, this book provides essential validation for children of first responders, healthcare workers, or night-shift employees. It transforms a potentially lonely transition into a beautiful cycle of mutual care and anticipation, making it a soothing addition to any 3 to 7 year old's bedtime routine.
