"Adapted from Eugene Field's original poem 'Wynken, Blynken, and Nod.'"

WYNKEN, BLYNKEN AND Nod one night Sailed off in a wooden shoe– Sailed off on a river of crystal light Into a sea of dew . . . So begins Eugene Field’s lovely bedtime poem, which tells of three wee fishermen who sail up to the stars, and a boy who imagines it all before he drifts off to sleep. Field’s timeless text has lulled generations of little listeners into dreamland, and this version, complimented by Giselle Potter’s magical illustrations, is perhaps the most enchanting—and the closest to Fields’ own vision—of all.

Presents illustrated versions of the title poem and seven others, including "Fiddle-Dee-Dee" and "Wynken, Blynken, and Nod."

A collection of poems evoking the world and feelings of childhood.

"Join Winken, Blinken, and Nod on their fantastical journey to a land beyond sleep in this expanded version of the classic children's tale. The imaginative rhyme and whimsical illustrations will get your little one ready for bedtime--and a night full of fun, sweet dreams"--Page 4 cover.
