If your little one has ever had trouble sleeping or attempted to avoid bedtime, they’ll laugh themselves sleepy as they read along with Nolan, a wonderfully unique narwhal who is not quite ready for bed. With soothing, rhyming text and whimsical, playful illustrations, this padded board book will help little ones go from deep sea silliness to sweet, soothing dreams.

Nighty Night Narwhal:

Nolan the narwhal tries to go to sleep. He really does. But he’s thirsty ... and hungry ... and there might be a giant sea horse in the closet ... or under the bed ... and his eyes won’t stay shut ... and his horn is achy ... and all the blankets are too hot ... but no blankets are too cold ... and maybe one more song would help ... and one more story ... that’s it! One more story and Nolan promises to go to bed.
