#1 New York Times-bestselling author Dr. Becky is back with this utterly relatable picture book about a bedtime that goes on...and on...and on... until Dad helps Charlie learn what he can say to feel at peace in his room, ready to sleep.

Charlie loves his bedtime routine… except the bedtime part.

He dances, asks questions, and finds any distraction to get “one more book”... anything to delay The Moment when the lights go out and he’s suddenly alone in the dark.

As Charlie’s worries grow louder, so do his requests… until his dad gives him a simple way to feel safe, connected, and brave - even after the door clicks shut.

Picture books from parenting expert Dr. Becky do more than tell a story: they depict real, messy moments and share an important message for kids and parents alike…

That even when we struggle on the outside, we remain good inside.
That our kids’ latest behavior is not a sign of who they are but a sign of what they need.
That parents can hold boundaries and stay connected to their kid.
Kids will end these stories feeling seen and understood.
Parents will end these stories feeling empowered and hopeful.
Both will pick them up time and time again.
