About This Book
Reach for this book when a first sleepover at a relative's house is met with unexpected nighttime jitters or the humorous reality of a snoring family member. It is the perfect choice for normalizing the noisy, sometimes chaotic experience of multi-generational bonding in a way that turns frustration into family lore. The story follows a young girl staying at her grandparents' house, where Papa's snoring creates a literal and figurative earthquake of sound. It highlights the importance of patience and the ability to find humor in life's little disruptions. Parents will appreciate how it frames a common bedtime struggle as a quirky, loving memory rather than a source of anxiety. It is ideally suited for children ages 3 to 7 who are navigating sleep routines away from home.

Ideal Reader
A 4 or 5-year-old child who is preparing for their first weekend away at a grandparent's house or a child who is easily startled by loud noises and needs a humorous way to process them.
