It's nighttime, and the little girl from the companion book Sunshine is now winding down her day: she eats her dinner, takes a bath, and says good-night to her dolls. Her dad reads her a bedtime story, but she's not quite ready to go to sleep — she gets up for a glass of water, a hug, a reading session with her mom, and then, when both of her parents fall asleep, she's ready for bed again. Kids love routines and will be able to see themselves in this simple, wordless illustrated story.
