Where do we go when we go to sleep? The little boy in this story is not waiting to find out. He climbs on board a carpet of light and sails into the night. It is his choice where he goes and he chooses well, visiitng many lands. The first is the land of helping hands. There, he sees that sharing tasks can be fun. Next, he visits the land of smiling faces, where smiles are found all over the places. The land of delightful surprises is his next stop. What he finds is a wild array of jacks-in-the boxes doing their exercises, each tickling the other as they pop up. When he visits the land of gladly giving, he discovers the joy of giving and receiving. His next adventure takes him to the land of future greatness.
