It is bedtime, but Cooper is not ready to climb into his mother's pouch and go to sleep until they enjoy some lullabies.

A young bunny goes to sleep and dreams of the soothing colors, shapes, sights, and sounds of nature.

A lullaby which asks animals such as a lizard, monkey, and water-buffalo to be quiet and not disturb the sleeping baby.

This wonderful book abounds with special songs, action rhymes and dancing games for children and parents to share.

Numbers from ten to one are part of this lullaby which observes the room of a little girl going to bed.

"On a beautiful night an owl sings to his owlet, a deer to her fawn, a whale to her calf. Animal parents all over the world sing this lullaby to their young, celebrating parents' love for their children."--

As children prepare for bed, the world around them is also settling down for the night. Through the seasons, animals who live in the jungle, the forest, and the sea all whisper to their babies, and to yours, a soft refrain: "It's time to sleep, my love."

A lullaby interspersed with illustrations of a father's efforts to put his reluctant child to bed.

A boy and his father are banished because the father, a magician, has a habit of making things vanish. But when the monster Abiyoyo appears . . . the boy plays a song on his ukelele to make the monster dance; then the father makes Abiyoyo disappear, and all is forgiven. The charm of this . . . lies in Seeger's wry understatement coupled with Hays' outstanding illustrations . . . The song, with music, is included

"All creatures of the world find time to rest. And in this lullaby book, countless cozy animals settle down in their bed".
