Reach for this book when the typical bedtime routine has hit a wall and your child is still buzzing with 'the wiggles.' It is the perfect choice for those nights when sleep feels like a distant shore and you need a playful, rhythmic bridge to help your little one transition from high energy to a quiet rest. The story follows a father and daughter who, unable to sleep, embark on a vibrant and fantastical journey through the night air.
