Amelie is the rare picture-book kid who likes bedtime. That's mainly because she loves to dream, although her dreams can be elusive; usually, "Amelie had to set out in search of them." Digital art semi-successfully masquerading as watercolors shows pajama-clad Amelie night-trekking across snow, clouds, etc., until she "stumbled upon slumber." The poetic text will sweep listeners along with Amelie.
