The Fluffy Futon
by Yuichi Kasano
A soft fluffy futon in the sun is an irresistible spot for a nap, as everyone discovers in this picture book that will make you laugh, yawn—and feel like you've woken from a very good sleep.
Grandma spreads her newly washed futon to dry in the sun. The futon is so soft and smells so clean! The cat can't resist nestling down for a snooze. Instead of chasing it away, Grandma settles in alongside, soon followed by the hen and her chicks, a little boy, the dog, the goat and the pig family. . . Soon the whole household is taking a nap! Until Grandma starts to find the futon so comfy that no one else can fit. With irresistible illustrations of a cozy pile of funny sleepers, The Fluffy Futon is both encouragement for bedtime and laugh-out-loud funny.
