A groundhog’s winter bedtime dilemma

Tess is a young groundhog who resists the family’s seasonal hibernation, even as her parents try to settle her for sleep. Her determination to stay awake sets up the book’s central contrast: a long winter of rest on one side, and the approaching celebration of Groundhog Day on the other. Framed as a winter bedtime story, the picture-book premise brings together animal characters, family routines, and a familiar seasonal tradition. Tess’s question—whether she can make it through the winter without falling asleep—gives the story a clear point of anticipation.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • A fit for children who enjoy animal-centered picture books.
  • Suitable for families seeking a winter or bedtime read-aloud.
  • May interest young readers curious about hibernation and Groundhog Day.

Book overview

In this cozy picture book, it's time to hibernate--but our little groundhog is NOT sleepy. So she tries to stay up all winter . . . and almost misses Groundhog Day!

As snow gently blankets the land, the Groundhogs prepare for their long, snuggly hibernation. But little Tess is wide awake!

Tess's parents try everything to get her to sleep, but she knows every trick in the book. When Mommy and Daddy fall asleep without her, will Tess be able to stay up all winter? Or will she snore her way through Groundhog Day?

Join Tess in this wintery bedtime story perfect for readers who are wide awake when the rest of their world is sleepy.
