It's time to sleep, it's time to sleep, the fishes croon in waters deep. The songbirds sing in trees above, "It's time to sleep, my love, my love." As children prepare for bed, the world around them is also settling down for the night. Animals - who live in the jungle, the forest, the sea - all whisper to their babies a soft refrain: "It's time to sleep, my love." As comforting as a soft blanket and warm as a goodnight hug, Eric Metaxas' lullaby It's Time to Sleep, My Love is delightfully brought to life by bestselling artist Nancy Tillman (On the Night You Were Born), whose illustrations celebrate the wonders of the natural world, and the bonds of family.
Nancy Tillman is the author and illustrator of the New York Times bestselling picture book On the Night You Were Born. Her other books include The Spirit of Christmas and Wherever You Are, My Love Will Find You. A former advertising executive, Tillman now writes and illustrates full-time. She lives in Tualatin, Oregon, in the United States.
