Goodreads Synopsis: 
In this poetic picture book, young readers are invited to explore the sounds of nighttime and find comfort in them instead of fear.

As a young child falls asleep, the night comes alive. Animals hide and leaves blow, seeds are spread and crops are watered, and the world wakes anew in the morning. Focusing on the necessity of nighttime, this beautiful book showcases the night, along with its sometimes scary sounds, through new eyes. Stunning illustrations from an award-winning illustrator complement each spread as the poetry balances the magic and mystery of nighttime with the comforting stillness of being tucked safely indoors.
Review: 
This was a very cute, well-illustrated children's picture book. It will be a great bedtime story for littles and parents alike. Written in a short and simplistic way, this story is lyrical and rhythmic and will help put your little ones to bed. 

The illustrations are wonderful, focusing on nature and the world around us in a soothing manner. They are detailed nicely to fit with the rhyming story and the showcasing of nature is beautiful. 

This book is short but impactful, and a lovely read.
