Big Daddy Rabbit gets Little One all riled up before bedtime by playing and shouting with all the other animals in the woods. Little One recognizes when it's time to settle down, though, and they snuggle and go to sleep. Energetic rhymes pair with lush, emotive illustrations of bears and rabbits and owls saccharinely dancing together.

The Jade Emperor wants to name the years of his new calendar after animals, so he announces a swimming race to determine the order of the names. Rat, being smart and sneaky, manages to come in first, with the eleven other zodiac animals behind him. Whimsical, attractive collage illustrations match the story's humor. Additional information about the Chinese calendar is included.
