    "There’s so much to enjoy, including [...] the utterly heartwarming bond between Jackson and his mother." – Praise for Time for Us, BookTrust

    From Rebecca Walker, mother and bestselling author, comes the touching follow-up to Time for Us – a story that celebrates the moments we share as the world becomes quiet and the stars come out to play.

    Jackson is ready for bed, but tonight Mama is busy, and he has to wait... and wait... and wait. He snuggles up to Piggy, hums a lullaby, and thinks about the things he and Mama do before bed. But the night feels too big without her.

    When their “time for us” begins, Mama and Jackson take a trip through the night sky, imagining the stars, the moon, and all the wonders beyond. Wrapped in Mama’s arms, Jackson’s eyes grow heavy…

    This beautifully illustrated picture book is an ode to the precious time families spend together, whether big or small, and is a perfect way to say goodnight.
    Rebecca Walker has received numerous awards and accolades for her writing and activism. Her work has appeared in many anthologies and publications; in addition to the international bestseller Black, White, and Jewish, her books include Baby Love: Choosing Motherhood After a Lifetime of Ambivalence, and the anthologies To Be Real: Telling the Truth and Changing the Face of Feminism, which has become a standard text in gender studies courses around the world, and What Makes a Man: 22 Writers Imagine the Future. A popular speaker at universities and in business settings, Walker teaches the art of memoir at workshops and writing conferences internationally. She lives in Hawaii. View titles by Rebecca Walker
