In this book, a Somali boy is too energetic to sleep, so his Hooyo (mom) tells a story to settle him down. By weaving foreign words for 'mom' and 'dad' into the story, Hooyo wisely begins teaching her child new languages; in turn, her child cleverly questions her in return! Peek into 9 homes around the world as parents prepare their children for bed. The Beyond Bedtime Series features BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, People of Color) Indians, Africans, Asians, South Americans, Middle Easterners and others! Besides being a delightful bedtime story, it is a catalyst to discuss global differences in families, clothing, furnishings, plants, pets, games, architecture, and much more! It is truly a triumph for diversity and stimulus for learning. The book concludes with a world map so that readers can locate the families who appear in the stories. A pronunciation guide accompanies each new word.
