For a long bit this book was insanely hard to find. Now there’s a resurgence:
Daddy’s been away for a month, taking care of Grandma, and Tyree is so eager to see him that he wants to stay up, in his hiding place, to surprise Daddy when he comes. Mama, busy doing her homework, has a face-saving solution: he can sit in the big chair until he sees the morning’s first light, then hide. A pillow and blanket help Ty drift off; realizing that Mama has “won,” he sleeps happily till Daddy comes and carries him to bed.
Also a book for the nephew.
