It's time for bed, baby. Community comes together to welcome a new child in this classic bedtime story from author/illustrator, Karissa Bettendorf. "This story started as a poem and series of little paintings when we were expecting our son. I was dreaming about the world I wanted to bring my baby into–a world rich in community, where a sense of belonging settles deep in our souls. Storytelling shapes the future, and I hope this little book can add to the stories we tell the children in our lives about the world we are creating together. Where friendships thrive, love wins, and every baby knows they belong." Karissa Bettendorf, author/illustrator
