waiting to come out...

Critic reviews

★ "A dreamy homage that’s its own budding classic." —Kirkus Reviews, starred review

"A suitably untamed bedtime sequence winds down, yielding a thoroughly heartening portrait of a child abandoning inhibition." —Publishers Weekly

"Read this to the kid who always has dirt under their fingernails for a calming bedtime read and the kind of blurring of fantasy and reality that preps little ones for sweet dreams." —The Bulletin

"A gorgeous guide to finding the wildness within." —Booklist

"An excellent read-aloud for young children at home with a parent or older sibling, this book inspires a love of nature and a healthy disregard for all that is prim and proper." —School Library Journal
