Bedtime in the Forest

(4) K-3 Intrigued by the thought of playing at night and sleeping by day, three squirrel siblings sneak out after bedtime and join some owlets, only to find themselves too sleepy to carouse. In a fitting (if somewhat abrupt) resolution, the squirrels create a mailbox for corresponding with their nocturnal owl friends. Attractive, delicately colored illustrations set the scene high in the treetops.
