It's nighttime, my little one.

Climb into bed.

I don't want to sleep --

I'll go sailing instead.

There's only one problem:

Your ship has no sail.

I'm tying my boat

to the tail of a whale.

Cuddle up with this warm and loving tale of a feisty little girl and a mother who understands her daughter's reluctance for bedtime. After all, who wants to sleep when there are so many adventures ahead?
