It's time for Little Quack and his siblings to go to sleep...But there's something glowing in the dark, something hooting in the trees above, and something rustling in the reeds. There's just too much excitement for the ducklings to settle down! But when the stars begin to shine it just might be time for bed, at last.

Lauren Thompson is the author of the bestselling Mouse's First and Little Quack series. She works as an editor and lives in Brooklyn, New York, with her husband and young son. Derek Anderson's vibrant and imaginative illustrations have appeared on cards and in magazines for many years. he lives with his wife in Minneapolis.
PreSchool-K - Little Quack and his siblings, Widdle, Waddle, Piddle, and Puddle, are back in this delightful tale that is sure to please even the pickiest of bedtime procrastinators. Mama Duck is trying to get her offspring to sleep when they spy something going "blink! blink! blink!" on the pond. She looks and sees five sleepy fireflies, "winking 'good night.' That's what is blinking in the dark. Now it's sleepy time, little ducklings." Widdle closes her eyes, but the others hear "whooo! whooo! whooo!" in the distance. Mama reassures her brood that the sound is part of the natural surroundings, whispering good night in its unique way, and that "Now it's sleepy time, little ducklings." Each time, for every reassurance she gives, another duckling nods off, until only Little Quack is left awake, needing some special comfort before drifting off to sleep. Turquoise blues and greens, shadowy grays and soft blacks, and the fuzzy yellowness of Little Quack and his siblings (replete with individual plumage) act as a soothing blanket, surrounding readers with warmth. Pair this story with Jane Simmons's Daisy and the Beastie (Little, Brown, 2000) for even more ducky fun. - Lisa Gangemi Kropp, Middle Country Public Library, Centereach, NY
