Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
Breathtaking collage art and exquisite rhyming couplets showcase fantastical dreams as the natural world is prepared for a new day in this gentle bedtime book.
As the day ends and a little girl is put to sleep by her mother, night-helper bunnies work their magic to tidy and polish the world. These helpers paint flowers, dust butterflies, and charge rainbows to make the world a beautiful place to wake up to.
Miki Sato's collage art, which combines paper, textiles, and embroidery silk, creates a three-dimensional dream world that is rich in detail and texture. Jennifer Maruno uses soothing rhyming couplets that celebrate the beauty of nature, creating a uniquely magical world.
"Rhyming couplets and collage art depict a mother putting her child to sleep, while her beloved toy rabbits come to life to tidy and polish the world for when she wakes up again. Their fantastical activities include painting flowers, stitching clouds, and embroidering the Milky Way."-- Provided by publisher.
