About This Book
A parent would reach for this book when the evening routine feels like a battle of wills and they want to reconnect through play instead of pressure. It is a gentle remedy for bedtime resistance that frames the transition to sleep as a joyful game rather than a forced ending to the day. In this lyrical tale, Mother Sky lovingly prepares her child, Little Night, for sleep by playing a cosmic game of hide and seek. Through poetic language and glowing pastel illustrations, the story explores themes of maternal love, imagination, and the beauty of the natural world. It is perfectly suited for children aged 3 to 6, providing a soothing yet creative ritual that celebrates the bond between mother and child while honoring Mexican artistic sensibilities.
