Illustrated by
Seng Soun Ratanavanh.
It's time to sleep, but Miyuki tells Grandfather that she must first make a canopy for the Dragonfly Queen's visit, gather together the snail family members, and so on. The selflessness of Miyuki's tasks make them more interesting than the typical bedtime book's stalling tactics. The watercolor and colored-pencil illustrations present a magical-realism-kissed natural world also featuring Japanese cultural symbols.
