Clever book design adds something extra to this bedtime book, illustrated with Haughton's signature blocky digital illustrations, rendered in a jewel-toned palette. Tiered page progression tells how very sleepy several woodland animals are, but a wide-awake little bear is not sleepy. The cub eventually exhausts itself searching for playmates. A return home provides cozy closure for the little bear and the other animals, too.
