Description
From actor Max Greenfield, the author of I Don't Want to Read This Book and its two companion titles, comes a sweetly funny bedtime book about anxiety and being present. What do we do when we can't fall asleep? The child in this story has racing thoughts--funny, silly, and scary--that are running on a cycle they can't stop. It's only when they begin to think to themselves: Do any of these thoughts have merit? Am I in any danger right here and now? that they are finally able to settle down. This lovely picture book is a simple but complex message about acknowledging anxiety without succumbing to it that will appeal to so many little ones (and adults) out there who find that nighttime is when their thoughts carry the most weight.
