Publisher Description
Hold this book gently because it’s very sleepy! A mouse inside the pages invites you to read the book a bedtime story, tuck it in with a cozy blanket, and give it a hug and a kiss. Oh, and don’t forget to ask whether it brushed its teeth and went pee-pee! Then turn off the light. There. Shhh! This book is sleeping! Fans of Press Here and The Monster at the End of This Book will enjoy coaxing the very book they’re holding to go to sleep.
From the Board edition.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Baby's first metafiction! "Shhh! This book is getting sleepy," explains a pink mouse in this charming board book from a French team. Bourgeau uses dashes of black and white to give the blue book a childlike face that fills the right-hand pages and looks sleepier with every page turn. The mouse invites readers to assist in the book's bedtime routine, from making sure it has used the bathroom to providing a story, blanket, "a big hug... and a little kiss." It's a smart way to make children feel like more than passive participants in the bedtime process, and the book's adorably tiny yawns and sinking eyelids make it irresistible. Up to age 3.
