Illustrated by
Mary GrandPré.
Late at night, impish creatures called the Wee Hours arrive, hour by hour, laughing, skipping, and wreaking playful havoc in a sleeping child's bedroom. Luckily, the older Hours--Five, Six, and Seven--arrive to clean up and put their littler counterparts to bed. The warmhearted, dreamy story is carried by richly colored pastel illustrations showing the sprites jaunting through the quiet nighttime setting.
