Reach for this book when the bedtime transition feels like a tug-of-war and you need a creative way to channel your child's lingering energy into a structured routine. It turns the 'boring' tasks of washing up and putting on pajamas into an imaginative safari where siblings work together as a team. Inspired by the imagery of Noah's Ark, the story follows twins Minnie and Max as they role-play as different animal pairs: splashing like crocodiles in the bath and stomping like elephants toward bed. It is a perfect choice for parents of toddlers and preschoolers who respond better to play than to direct commands. By the final page, the high-energy animal play naturally settles into a quiet, rhythmic calm, making it an effective tool for emotional regulation and winding down.
