After hearing from a classmate at kindergarten that people have monsters under their beds, Junie B. Jones is afraid to go to sleep that night.

Come now little one, it's time to go to sleep. All the little children are tucked up in bed. Everyone is going to sleep, now that night is near.

Unable to sleep, a little girl tries counting sheep and other items, searching for her doll and bear, eating a snack, and many other things in hopes of becoming tired.

Little Owl cannot sleep--his pillow is lumpy, his quilt too hot, and he hears strange noises--until Mommy Owl says that tomorrow, and his grandparents' visit, will come sooner if he sleeps.

"Animals are trying to fall asleep, but there are so many things to do before getting ready for bed"--

Aveces, cuando quieres a alguien mucho, mucho, mucho intentas encontrar el modo de espresar el tamaño de tus sentimientos. Pero, tal como Papá Liebre y su pequeño hijo, Caramelo, descubren, el amor no es algo fácil de medir! During a bedtime game, every time Little Nutbrown Hare demonstrates how much he loves his father, Big Nutbrown Hare gently shows him that the love is returned even more.

Cuddle up And snuggle tight, And close your eyes, And say goodnight. It's time for the bunnies to brush their teeth, clean their paws, and comb their tail. And before they fall asleep, they'll have time to curl up for one last hug, and one last story shared with some unexpected friends. Everybunny is welcome to join in this bright and cheery bedtime tale before dozing off into sweet dreams. -- from Amazon.

"Rhyming couplets describe a day in the life of an energetic, little girl who stretches "like a cat" and hangs "like a bat," while the illustrations show both the child and the succession of imaginary animals she mimics. Her activities wind up with a gentle goodnight as her parents tuck her, "snuggling like a bear," into bed."--

A baby does not want to go to sleep, even as everything else around her wishes her a good night.
