Truck-obsessed toddlers will want to make this fun-filled construction tale part of their nightly bedtime routine! Over one million copies sold!

Discover what bedtime looks like for fire trucks, snowplows, dump trucks, tractors, and all the vehicles that fill the pages of this irresistible book. Just like you and me, the trucks in this story get tuckered out after a long day of hard work and need to quiet down and settle in for sweet dreams. Young readers will see themselves as these trucks ask for one more story while parents sing them a goodnight song and send them off to bed.

"Sure to find an audience among small fans of big trucks." --Booklist

"Trucks can be big and noisy and moderately terrifying. Caught right, as here--what's not to love?" --Kirkus Reviews

"A solid choice for any truck-obsessed preschooler... Fun, imaginative verse appears on every page." --School Library Journal

"Taking you from the construction site to the farm to the monster truck arena and more, little ones will be ready to close their eyes by the time they've visited each truck."  --Random Acts of Reading

"This book is just plain adorable! ...The rhyming text compliments with words that are perfectly matched to the individual machine."  --Youth Services Book Review

"A must have for every little one who is a big truck/construction truck lover!" --CMLD Kids/Teens Book Reviews

"The pictures in this book are amazing and the rhyming phrases that accompany them make this a super cute story." --Kiss the Book (a book review site for school librarians)

Brianna Caplan Sayres used to tell her second graders, "When I grow up, I'm going to be a writer." "But you are grown up, Mrs. Sayres," her students would protest. Well, Brianna is still not quite sure she's grown up, but she has grown into a writer. Brianna's picture books include, Where Do Diggers Sleep at Night?, and Where Do Steam Trains Sleep at Night?, illustrated by Christian Slade, and Tiara Saurus Rex, illustrated by Mike Boldt. Can you guess what the next "sleep" book will be? If you said, Where Do Jet Planes Sleep at Night? (coming May 2017), you were right! 

Brianna has recently returned to her hometown, Seattle, Washington, where she and her husband are kept busy by their two wonderful boys. You can visit Brianna on the web at briannacaplansayres.com or facebook.com/authorbrianna. View titles by Brianna Caplan Sayres
