Where Do Speedboats Sleep at Night?

Illustrated by Christian Slade
From the team that brought you Where Do Diggers Sleep at Night? comes another "things that go" bedtime story, and this one is all about boats and sailing off to dreamland!

Ahoy there! Have you ever wondered what little speedboats do when it's time for bed? The same things you do! Cruise ships, canoes, fishing boats--and more!--wash up, have a snack, stow their teddies for storytime, and get "docked" to sleep by mommies and daddies, once the tides calm. Children who can't get enough of boats will love this nautical nighttime story full of exciting and familiar watercraft. Little vehicle lovers will want to collect all the books by Brianna Caplan Sayres and Christian Slade, including Where Do Steam Trains Sleep at Night?, Where Do Jet Planes Sleep at Night?, and Where Do Diggers Celebrate Christmas?

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. You can visit Brianna on the web at briannacaplansayres.com or facebook.com/authorbrianna View titles by Brianna Caplan Sayres
