"Rock-a-bye, little one, bedtime is soon. Rocking horse waits in your rock-a-bye
room." In this timeless bedtime book, a mother soothes her child to sleep with
this simple rhyming text as they say goodnight to all the things in her room--a
rocking horse, toy box, teddy bear and even the child's pillow and blanket--unti
l it's time for the mother to kiss her goodnight. Amy Bates's lush watercolours
evoke a "countrified," rockabilly setting with a hip twist.
