Illustrated by
Valeri Gorbachev.
Over the course of a day, hyperactive Squirrel tries, tries, tries to help Mouse, Turtle, and Rabbit, with varying degrees of success. In the last chapter, Squirrel disturbs his friends while attempting to say good, good, good night but does find a way to help Rabbit overcome his fear of the dark. Lively ink and watercolor illustrations underscore the animals' personalities.
