Bedtime for Us - Hardcover

by Rebecca Walker (Author), Maria Diaz Perera (Illustrator)

"There's so much to enjoy, including [...] the utterly heartwarming bond between Jackson and his mother." - Praise for Time for Us, BookTrust

From Rebecca Walker, mother and bestselling author, comes the touching follow-up to Time for Us - a story that celebrates the moments we share as the world becomes quiet and the stars come out to play.

Jackson is ready for bed, but tonight Mama is busy, and he has to wait... and wait... and wait. He snuggles up to Piggy, hums a lullaby, and thinks about the things he and Mama do before bed. But the night feels too big without her.

When their "time for us" begins, Mama and Jackson take a trip through the night sky, imagining the stars, the moon, and all the wonders beyond. Wrapped in Mama's arms, Jackson's eyes grow heavy...

This beautifully illustrated picture book is an ode to the precious time families spend together, whether big or small, and is a perfect way to say goodnight.
