Awards/获奖情况："Smiles and wild creatures abound in this playful mother-child bedtime routine.The brown skins of the bright-eyed parent and child suggest South Asian heritage, and the bedroom, bath, and clothing in the domestic scenes that alternate with imagined outdoor ones in the painted illustrations are Western in style and appearance. Readers can track the child’s reluctant bedtime progress in the illustrations, as gradually red overalls are shed in favor of blue-striped pajamas and bunny slippers in both real-life and imagined scenes. A warm and spirited invitation to dreamland." (Picture book. 4-6) - Kirkus "The illustrations are colorful and adorable, while the actual story expertly combines reality with fantasy. Quill says: A true bedtime story, this is one that should become a staple for all parents and children to enjoy." - Feathered Quill Book Review "A very sweet bedtime story that sparks the imagination and delights both parents and children alike. This would be a great book to add into your nightime line up." - Mrs Mommy Booknerd’s Review "This is a very sweet book. Even though it is perfect for very young children (preschool or Kindergarten), my second graders loved it! The illustrations by Pippa Curnick are very kid-friendly and striking. I can’t wait to read it to my grandsons!" - The Friendly Book Nook "
