A pajama party with one rule

Escargot’s sleepover comes with a challenge: nobody is supposed to fall asleep. As the French snail grows tired, he tries star-gazing with his stuffed bunny, making a blanket fort, and telling scary stories to stay awake. Those familiar nighttime activities give the story a playful way to approach the transition from party to bedtime, with an interactive read-aloud element noted in the description. The central question—whether Escargot can resist his comfortable bed—keeps the focus on the small, recognizable drama of a child’s evening winding down.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Children ages 4–8, the listed audience for the book.
  • Families or educators looking for a bedtime-themed picture book to read aloud.
  • Young readers who enjoy animal characters and pajama-party settings.

Book overview

**An Instant Indie Bestseller! Debuted at #8 on the Indie Bestseller List**

In this perfect bedtime read, a cute French snail hosts a pajama party in this laugh-out-loud fifth picture book in the bestselling Escargot series.

Escargot is hosting a pajama party and everyone is invited! There is only one rule: Don't fall asleep! As the night goes on and Escargot grows tired, he struggles to stay awake. Luckily, he has lots of ideas to keep his eyes from closing. Looking at the stars with his trusty stuffed bunny, building a blanket fort, and telling scary stories all help. But will the call of Escargot's comfy bed win out in the end?

From New York Times-bestselling author Dashka Slater and former Pixar animator Sydney Hanson, Good Night, Escargot is an irresistibly sweet and charming story about sleepover fun and winding down from the day. This hilarious and interactive addition to the award-winning Escargot series is an ideal bedtime (or anytime!) read-aloud for little ones and animals lovers.
