Illustrated by
Melissa Iwai.
All kinds of vehicles, from trains and cars to airplanes and trucks, slowly come to rest for the night in this quiet, sometimes forced rhyme. The gradually darkening illustrations alternate between the outside world with its real eighteen-wheelers and jumbo jets and a small boy's bedroom as he puts his toy cars away and gets ready for bed.
