You're Safe with Me

by Chitra Soundar (Author) Poonam Mistry (Illustrator)

A gentle bedtime tale to lull little ones to sleep, with artwork that twinkles like the night sky. When the moon rises high and the stars twinkle, it is bedtime for the baby animals of the Indian forest. But tonight, when the skies turn dark and the night grows stormy, the little ones can't sleep. Swish-Swish! Crack-Track! Flash-Snap! goes the storm. Only Mama Elephant with her words of wisdom can reassure them, you're safe with me.

Kirkus Reviews

With its short, rhythmic text and its rich, embellished, shiny pages with animals, flowers, and trees just waiting to be discovered, this is a reassuring yet inventive bedtime book.

A stunning, reassuring bedtime story.

Review quotes

"This beautiful bedtime book is a feast for the eyes and a warm, cozy blanket for the imagination. I felt as though I had been sung a lullaby, while being given a huge hug."—Tales on Moon Lane
