Peekaboo, Goodnight Crew! - (Peekaboo Crew!) by Mariessa Shein (Hardcover)

Book Synopsis

It's bedtime at the campsite, but the stars are glowing and the night isn't as quiet as it should be.

In this interactive lift-the-flap adventure, young readers explore a cozy nighttime camping scene where the night holds one surprise after another. Behind every flap, someone in the Goodnight Crew is still wide awake, tucked into unexpected corners of the campsite and caught in quietly silly moments under the moonlight.

With rhythmic, read-aloud rhymes and peekaboo flaps on every page, children are invited to search, predict, and discover what's happening after dark. Fireflies hide throughout the book too, with the count growing the deeper into night the story goes, adding an extra layer of discovery on every page.

Perfect for shared reading and bedtime routines, Peekaboo, Goodnight Crew! is a playful nighttime story filled with repetition, surprise, and gentle humor, designed to keep little readers engaged right up to the final page.
