Butterfly Butterfly
Where do you go? Where do you go when the sun goes down?
I go under a leaf. I find a good leaf, and crawl underneath.
The sun is going down and creatures outside and inside the house are ready for sleep. But where do they go? Come along as a young girl spends her evening learning just where butterflies and kittens go to get their rest. Through soothing and interactive dialogue, the creatures answer the question “where do you go when the sun goes down?” until the girl finally makes her way safe and sound to bed.
Perfect for curious children and restless readers who need one more story before bed, this engaging picture book gives readers a peek into the nightime habits of some of their favorite creatures. Award-winning author Greg Pizzoli's gentle rhythmic text and snug illustrations make this the perfect last read before turning out the light.
