It's bedtime.
Hedgehog, Fox, Donkey, Pelican and Crocodile are so tired.
But Seal needs to use the bathroom - slip slap slip, out the door.
Crocodile forgot to clean those sharp teeth - shlurf shlurf, out the door.
And Pelican is thirsty.
One by one the animals climb out of bed, until everyone is piled in the child's bed for a last goodnight kiss.
Oof, that's a heavy pile.
What happens now?
Susanne Strasser's snowballing animal stories that children love are bestsellers in multiple languages.
