Time for Bed, Miyuki

Like children everywhere, Miyuki's imagination peaks at bedtime, when she remembers all the things she has to do before she can possibly go to bed: she needs to water the vegetables, gather snails, and prepare for the arrival of the Dragonfly Queen. Her patient grandfather follows along on her adventures, gently encouraging her to go to sleep. In this beautiful story about family, nature, and love, young children and their parents find a welcome companion for their own bedtime journey.

La fel ca si copiii de pretutindeni, imaginatia lui Miyuki atinge culmea la culcare, cand isi aminteste toate lucrurile pe care trebuie sa le faca inainte sa se poata culca: trebuie sa ude legumele, sa adune melci si sa se pregateasca pentru sosirea Reginei Dragonfly. Bunicul ei rabdator isi urmeaza aventurile, incurajand-o cu blandete sa se culce.
