Review Quote "A truly sweet bedtime book to read with any child that has one more question, needs one more hug, or just one more sip of water before bed. Little Oliver has so much he wants to tell his mom before he goes to sleep and you know what? ….a great book to read to smaller children or to read as a call and response story with skilled earlier readers."-Heather Lam, reviewer"A sweet little story about wanting a few minutes more of connection to mommy."-Bibliofiler Author Comments "I was on an airplane going to meet my newborn grandson when I heard the child in front of me say to his parents, "Ya know what". "My fingers immediately started typing and the book became a bedtime conversation between Oliver and his mom. As many children do, Oliver tries to delay the final night-night with the repeated question. I want little ones to feel the joy of a shared reading and older children to imagine what Oliver might say on that final open-ended spread." Competing Titles Go to Sleep, Maddie!
