Little Bunny, an only child, is so lonely that he cannot sleep, so he asks his friends Squirrel, Skunk, Porcupine, Bear, and Owl if he can stay with them, only to discover that his own bed is best.
With no siblings to share his room, Little Bunny sometimes gets lonely at night. So one evening Bunny hops over to Squirrel's house to spend the night, but Squirrel likes a midnight snack of acorns and his crunching keeps Bunny awake. Bunny successively samples the hospitality of his many friends, but Skunk gets startled and sprays, Porcupine's bed bristles with stray quills, Bear snores, and Owl stays up reading. When a by-now-exhausted Bunny urges Owl to turn out the light, his wise friend advises him to return home to his own bed, where, of course, Bunny falls fast asleep. This straightforward story charms with its simplicity and engaging artwork awash in pastel hues. Gorbachev etches humour and delight into each droll illustration; for example, Little Bunny's rag doll bunny is tucked tidily into each bed, Squirrel's bent twig bed frames are the height of fashion, and Owl's treetop, the chandelier-lit abode is comfortably cluttered with books. This sweet bedtime story will prove a favourite with children and parents alike.
