Have you ever wondered what little airplanes do when it’s time for bed? Jumbo jets, biplanes, helicopters—even Air Force One!—power down, wash up, and listen to stories with mommy and daddy planes beneath a blanket of stars, getting ready to fly to dreamland. Little airplane lovers will be tickled to see how bedtime is just the same for their favorite flying vehicles as it is for them, as they come down to earth for sleepy time.
“Combining a quiet, nocturnal story with the ever popular subject of flying machines, this is a nifty bedtime book for budding aviators.” —Kirkus Reviews

Brianna Caplan Sayres
Brianna Caplan Sayres used to tell her second graders, “When I grow up, I’m going to be a writer.” “But you are grown up, Mrs. Sayres,” her students would protest. Well, Brianna is still not quite sure she’s grown up, but she has grown into a writer. Brianna’s picture books include the Where Do Diggers Sleep at Night? series, illustrated by Christian Slade, Tiara Saurus Rex, illustrated by Mike Boldt, and Why Did the Chicken Cross the Road?: A Hardboiled Mystery, illustrated by Mark Fearing. Can you guess what the next diggers book will be? If you said, Diggers Love Their Grandparents (coming in 2026!), you were right! Brianna has recently returned to her hometown, Seattle, Washington, where she loves to have adventures with her two wonderful boys.
