At night, a host of woodland creatures plays with a child's red sled.

Illustrations and simple, onomatopoeic text capture a busy day in the life of a large and diverse family of Australian animals.

A mouse wakes up with a squeak, and his noise sets off a chain reaction of animals waking each other up.

"The only thing better than reading a good book together is playing make believe with your favorite grown-up! Especially when that grown-up's imagination is as big as yours, and you both get to make all kinds of funny sounds. A father and child play make-believe as a variety of animals, plants, and forces of nature. Chirp, thunder, and roar along with this joyously boisterous read-aloud picture book."-- Adapted from publisher.
