Evoking picture book classics like Aaron Becker''s Journey and Chris Van Allsburg''s The Polar Express, here is an emotionally rich bedtime picture book about a lonely child''s nighttime adventure that is also a showcase for the extraordinary illustrations of Daniel Miyares.

When a small, friendless boy goes to bed at his boarding school, an adventure is about to begin! First he finds an invitation in his turtle''s bowlNext he makes an escape--out the window, through the woods, across a river, and onto an island. And then he joins a grand celebration, with larger-than-life animals serving tea and dancing late into the night. And finally? After the journey back, he has a fantastic story to tell--the perfect way to make a friend.

A simple text and glorious illustrations combine to make a deceptively powerful and touching picture book, cementing Daniel Miyares''s reputation as one of the most exciting children''s book author-illustrators working today.
