What Really Happens at Night?
Reading Level: K − 1st Grade

Silver Medal Winner of the 2022 Key Colors Competition, the two-yearly national contest for illustrators of children's books. This is a classic "I don't want to go to bed" quirky bedtime story about curiosity, imagination, and creative solutions.

It's bedtime already? But I don't feel like going to sleep. There's so much to think about. I have so many questions! What happened to my other sock? Why is dad losing his hair? What does the sun do at night? And most of all: why am I so sleepy? The everyday questions of a little girl are visualized in the pictures with a lot of imagination.

"Delightful bedtime fare, and, ironically, a potential get-to-sleep tool." -Kirkus Reviews

Review quotes

Silver Medal Winner of the 2022 Key Colors Competition, the two-yearly national contest for illustrators of children's books.


"Those who have had mundane and existential queries zip through their minds while they're trying to sleep will revel in the innocently blunt tone of this brief, gratifyingly inconclusive story of inquiry. Delightful bedtime fare, and, ironically, a potential get-to-sleep tool." -Kirkus Reviews
