Illustrated by
Lauren Stringer.
A young boy enjoys bedtime with his "friends"--three stuffed animals that recount their day with him. Answering the refrain, "the who, the what, the why, and the way..." reveals the day's thunderstorm drama before it all "turned out okay." Stringer's illustrative vignettes in soft nighttime colors with thoughtful design elements complement Fox's simple, lyrical text in this reassuring bedtime story.
