Lucie Brunellière, illustrated by Lucie Brunellière
A wakeful baby gradually settles down for sleep as a checked blanket covers more of her body with each turn of a flap. The good-night ritual begins at her toes and moves upward toward her chin and nose. Every blanket page extends farther than the last, so the physical pages show the blanket’s steady progress. By the end, the baby has been tucked in for bedtime.
