Baby-Toddler—"Hush a bye, my baby/Here's a song just for you." In this lullaby, fathers ready their little ones for bed. Muted colors and dreamy background images set a soothing tone. All the characters are apple-cheeked (yes, including some sleepily buzzing bees and a slumbering owl), lending the work a childlike flavor.—Mahnaz Dar, School Library Journal
