A favorite bedtime or naptime book for babies and toddlers. Each page has a little action: "First wave good-bye to the sun's bright light. / Gently press the firefly. / Oh! Press again to light up the sky." Turn the page, and fireflies are everywhere! Meanwhile, as actions and words take you from page to page, the sky behind the illustrations goes red, then aqua, then blue, then darker, and stars come out (including Big and Little Dippers and a comet), then "Close your eyes and breathe in deeply. / Nod your head if you feel sleepy." It's gentle and lovely. ( )

The illustrations are beautiful and interactive part seems fun. I tend to judge picture books by how good they'd be to read for storytime, and this kind of interactive book doesn't work so well. You can't get 10 kids up to tap each page, unless you're trying to kill a lot of time. I would definitely read this with one or two kids though! ( )

A book that encourages interaction (wave, press, blow, pat, say good night, tap, count, etc.); also a good sleepy-time book, but one that ends with the beginning of a new day.
