Summary
Since Little Mouse can't sleep, he is able to hear every noise made outside his house and so turns to Big Mouse for comfort, yet Big Mouse wants to sleep and just wishes that Little Mouse would do the same.
Amazon.com description: Product Description: A sweet and comforting bedtime story, this charming picture book features a little mouse and a big mouse engaged in the familiar nighttime struggle of coaxing a young one to sleep.

It's late at night, and Little Mouse is WIDE AWAKE! There's something whoosh-whooshing outside, tap-tapping on the window, drip-dripping through the roof-- it certainly is a very noisy night. What's a scared, sleepy mouse to do on such a night? Why, keep Big Mouse awake, of course! Reluctant sleepers will identify with Little Mouse's late-night nervousness and take comfort in Big Mouse's explanations for each nocturnal noise.

Jane Chapman creates a convincing and colorful home for her sweetly rendered mice. Children will enjoy spotting postage stamp "paintings," spool-of-thread "tables," and other delightful details as they, like Little Mouse, are eased into sleep.
