About this item
Splashy sunset paints the sky.Shy moon tiptoes,climbs up high . . . Daylight is fading and night is drawing in. Its time for bed. A drowsy child observes the wide world settling down, coming ever closer to home until at last there are good-night hugs and kisses for this little sleepyhead. Richly painted, evocative scenes illuminate the text, imbuing the whole with mystery and a sense of comfort and warmth, and making this a bedtime story to treasure for all time.,
