(3) K-3 Illustrated by Adam Gudeon. A frustrated bunny mother attempts to put her two eldest daughters to sleep with a bedtime story, but she abandons the book when the younger child is too distracted by the world around her. Ink and gouache illustrations in subdued colors, softly textured and stained with tea, depict the warm family dynamic (despite Mama's exasperation) in this playful story of a sisterly bond.
