*As I’m sure you know, not all children have a home like what described in this book–one in which they can relax, rest, and recharge. I’d recommend taking into account your potential audience before reading aloud.

However, it is another lovely book by Cynthia Rylant. Personally, it wasn’t my favorite illustrator she’s paired up with, but it still was quite commendable.
