Summary

How do you make a perfect bedtime? An award-winning author and acclaimed illustrator craft a soothing picture book sure to inspire sweet dreams every night.

When the sun’s light is fading and night’s on the rise,
it's time to start yawning your sleepy goodbyes.
Time for snuggling and snoozing and slumbering now.
Time for making your bedtime, and I'll show you how.

Inside a wonderfully warm home, a cuddly parental bear guides a young child through their bonding bedtime routine. A sloshy bath, soft pajamas, a song for singing, a huggily hug before a story, then it’s bedtime at last. Cozy, appealing illustrations by Karen Blair accompany author Meg McKinlay’s melodic, rhyming text in a picture book that little ones and their caretakers will want to incorporate into their own nightly rituals.
