Nighttime is coming, and Mama says it’s time for bed. “I can’t,” the child explains. “My blanket ran away. I saw it scrambling down the stairs.”
As each family member, from Auntie to the family dog, tries to get the toddler to go to bed, he tells them about the blanket’s journey. It’s packing up a bag, wriggling through the window and climbing over the garden gate! After leading a merry chase down the road, the blanket needs a rest. Maybe it's finally ready for bed...for tonight, at least.
"Similar to popular pairs such as Elephant and Piggie or Narwhal and Jelly, the lightly sardonic yet ultimately affectionate relationship between the protagonists will feel familiar and fun."
Kirkus Reviews
Paisley is not only a neat and tidy pig. He’s also a foodie who refuses to eat slop and dreams of becoming a food critic. Peck is an enthusiastic chick who is not a morning bird and refuses to grow up to be the farm’s alarm clock.
