K-3
Illustrated by
Mary Watson.
After graduating from a crib to a big bed, the narrator worries about falling out or being scared. Once she realizes she can fix these problems, she looks forward to sleeping in her new bed. The story tenderly addresses this childhood transition, while the soft, realistic illustrations show how she is able to take care of her fears.
