Take a luminous bedtime journey through the summery dreamworld of a restless baby in this enchanting picture book lullaby. In the tradition of bedtime classics like Goodnight Moon, this gorgeous book with a cloth-like spine is the perfect gift for new parents.

Bright Lights and Summer Nights invites readers into a world where fireflies and the mystic moon illuminate a brilliant night, filled with friends and firelight.

On a hot summer night, Mother Moon soothes a little star baby who won't go to sleep. With her magic, she spins a warm, lyrical tale of friendship and funβ€”a dreamy summer evening set beneath a blanket of twinkling stars. Children and forest friends with balloons enjoy a country fair with a carousel and caramel apples before taking a fantastical trolley ride to a marvellous, light-filled destination.

This captivating book is sure to be picked up night after night, sending all little star babies off to dreamland.
