Publisher's Synopsis
Three stories with bedtime themes feature a 6-year-old boy's bedtime experiences:
1."Duck in the Fridge" the father tells him how the seeds of their ritual of reading Mother Goose before bedtime were sown. In his own boyhood, the father's home was suddenly invaded by a barn-ful of noisy animals who stole his socks, hogged the remote, and wouldn't let him sleep. Only Goose's beloved nursery rhymes, fables, and fairy tales were able to calm the herd into slumber.
2."The Monster" portrays how a bedroom transforms into a spooky place.
3.In the third chapter the boy wonders what his parents do after he goes to sleep, and imagines a plethora of wild activities--which he looks forward to when he gets to stay up late!
