This book is absolutely adorable. My daughter fell asleep reading it the very first night we got it, and she’s picked it up every single day since. The illustrations are so fun and the story sparks such sweet conversations. It’s quickly become one of her favorite bedtime books and a new staple in our house. Highly recommend!
