Description
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.

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.
