Nighttime sounds and morning renewal

As a child settles to sleep, the night is shown as an active part of the natural world: animals hide, leaves move, seeds travel, and crops receive water. These images connect familiar nighttime sounds with the changes that help bring a new morning. The board book’s poetic approach frames darkness as something to notice and explore, while the child remains safely tucked indoors. Its bedtime setting brings together the mysteries of the night and the reassurance of being at home.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Young children at bedtime
  • Families looking for a picture book about nighttime and nature
  • Readers seeking a board book for ages 0–3

Book overview

In this poetic board book, young readers are invited to explore the sounds of nighttime and find comfort in them instead of fear.

As a young child falls asleep, the night comes alive. Animals hide and leaves blow, seeds are spread and crops are watered, and the world wakes anew in the morning. Focusing on the necessity of nighttime, this beautiful book showcases the night, along with its sometimes scary sounds, through new eyes. Stunning illustrations from an award-winning illustrator complement each spread as the poetry balances the magic and mystery of nighttime with the comforting stillness of being tucked safely indoors.
