Synopsis

"Somewhere a bee Makes a bed in a rose, Because the bee knows Day has come to a close. "Nighttime blankets a little farm. An owl who-hoots. A bear curls up in a log. A mother fox calls her pups home to the den. But animals aren't the only ones preparing to rest. In the tradition of Margaret Wise Brown, with classically styled picture book illustrations and fresh, childlike imagery, this poetic bedtime book, as peaceful as it is warm, will wrap young ones in the comforts of routine. All is well, it reminds them. Now is the time for dreams. * "Repeated, pleasingly surreal lines of verse convey the sense of drifting into slumber...a keeper." --"Publishers Weekly", starred review "A quiet book for sharing in a cozy setting.""--School Library Journal"

Goodreads review by Becky on August 03, 2014

This bedtime book didn't quite work for me. Not that it was awful. It wasn't. It leans more towards poetry than most picture books. For better or worse. Some lines, some rhymes seem to work well. Take the opening line, for example, "Somewhere a bee makes a bed in a rose, because the bee knows day ha......more

Goodreads review by Regina on June 02, 2015

When the sun goes down, the day comes to a close and stars start to shine in the night sky, somewhere, a little girl yawns and gets ready for bedtime. The little girl isn’t the only one – a bee makes its bed on a flower, mice curl up together, and many other animals gather together to rest. When the......more
