![]() ![]() A page turn reveals further slumberous silliness from Piggie: “And WHY is my head a TURNIP?” (“Good question,” agrees Knuffle Bunny). When Gerald throws a fit about not being able to sleep and declares, “I am NOT enjoying my nap, Piggie! I am NOT napping!”, she counters with “But, if you are not napping, how can I be floating?” as Gerald’s dream takes a wacky turn. ![]() Her “special buddy” for napping is a stuffed elephant (which Gerald finds endearing), and soon both pals are off to dreamland-until Piggie’s snores keep Gerald from sleeping. In his subsequent dream, Piggie disturbs his nap, and Gerald’s grouchy response to her interruption makes her so cranky that she, too, wants to take a restorative rest. Tired, cranky Gerald wisely recognizes that a nap is just what he needs to feel good again, and he quickly settles into sleep with his blankie and Knuffle Bunny (from Knuffle Bunny, BCCB 10/04). ![]()
