The Pillow That Could Not Get Comfortable

A pillow wiggles all over the bed until a sleepy child gives it one soft hug and helps it settle.

The whole story

1. At bedtime, the little cream pillow rested crookedly on the child's bed.

2. The little cream pillow wiggled sideways, but its corners still felt wrong.

3. The little cream pillow wiggled to the foot, but the blanket felt too far away.

4. The little cream pillow wiggled beneath the knees, but that place felt too bumpy.

5. A sleepy child sat up and watched the pillow search for a softer place.

6. The child patted the mattress gently, and the pillow paused beside that hand.

7. The sleepy child gave the pillow one soft hug and held it close.

8. The pillow settled beneath the child's head, and the whole bed grew still.
