‘A warm and wonderful bedtime hug.’ —STARRED REVIEW, Kirkus Reviews
This sweet, rhyming bedtime lullaby is a calming ode to nature as a loving family embraces their child as night falls and dream time begins. From rivers to eagles, to lions and lambs, to leaves and rain, and to stars and the moon, the soothing sounds of the world become the inspiration for a loving night of restful sleep for a weary baby. This book shares the spirit of shared community and the common values of love and hope.
Award-winning and beloved author Lesléa Newman crafts a sweet tale that all families with a young one can appreciate.
