NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • Llama Llama learns to face the bedtime blues in this charmingly written picture book classic, perfect for sending little ones off to sleep.

Llama, Llama red pajama
waiting, waiting for his mama.
Mama isn't coming yet.
Baby Llama starts to fret.

Tucked into bed by his mama, Baby Llama immediately starts worrying when she goes downstairs to do chores. As he waits and waits for her to come back, his soft whimpers turn to hollers as he turns bedtime into an all-out llama drama! But just in time, Mama Llama returns to set things right.

Complete with short, simple rhyming text, delightful illustrations, and a reassuring message, this hardcover picture book is sure to calm the minds of young readers preparing for bedtime.
PRAISE FOR LLAMA LLAMA RED PAJAMA:

“Dewdney gives a wonderfully fresh twist to a familiar nighttime ritual with an adorable bug-eyed baby llama, staccato four-line rhymes, and page compositions that play up the drama.” —Booklist
 

“With its sweet rendering of the trials of bedtime and separation anxiety, this book's familiar theme will be a hit with youngsters.” —School Library Journal 

Anna Dewdney was a teacher, mother, and enthusiastic proponent of reading aloud to children. She continually honed her skills as an artist and writer and published her first Llama Llama book in 2005. Her passion for creating extended to home and garden and she lovingly restored an eighteenth-century farmhouse in southern Vermont. She wrote, painted, gardened, and lived there with her partner, Reed, her two daughters, two wirehaired pointing griffons, and one bulldog. Anna passed away in 2016, but her spirit will live on in her books.
