Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

What do parents actually do when they go out for the night? In this picture book, two children who stay at home with a sitter when their parents go out for an evening imagine a series of increasingly wild adventures that befall them during the course of date night. The babysitter plays along, while reassuring them that their parents are quite capable of handling a night out- even one that includes runaway hot air balloons, camel caravans and a daring rescue that requires using Mum's high heels as climbing crampons.
