From the Back Cover
One morning a mother saw a strange bundle under the blanket in her bed.
"What is it?", she said to herself. "What can it be?"
So begins Ruth Krauss's charming story of a mother and child playing hide-and-seek. Baby hides beneath the blanket, and Mother tries again and again to guess what in the world the bundle could be. "Can it be a bundle of laundry . . . a bundle of carrots . . . a monkey?" Children will delight in this familiar game and its satisfying ending.
Originally published in 1951 as The Bundle Book, Ruth Krauss's timeless celebration of the wonderful moments between a mother and her child are brought to life by Julia Noonan's soft and playful artwork, making this a perfect story for new generations of young readers and for all families to share.
