Every night at home, Darcy brushes her teeth with strawberry toothpaste; she snuggles in bed with Little Cat; and she falls asleep to the sound of her dad washing the dishes. But tonight, Darcy is having her very first sleepover! Even though it's at her cousin Kayla's house, it still feels a little daunting. Kayla has peppermint toothpaste, a baby bear named Charlotte, and howling winds outside her window. Darcy misses her dad and her own cozy bedroom. Should she ask her aunt to take her home? With patience, mindfulness, and bravery, Darcy ultimately conquers her fears and savors the excitement of this new experience.
A rewarding tale of quiet growth for fans of The Invisible String by Patrice Karst and Wemberly Worries by Kevin Henkes.
