About This Book
A restless little mouse dreams of sleeping in cozy places like a bird's nest or a polar bear's den, but each option turns out to have its own troubles. With gentle guidance from his caring mother, he learns why his own snug home is the best place to rest. This tender bedtime tale invites young readers to share in a comforting ritual that promises peaceful nights.
