Wohin geht der Tag, wenn er müde ist? Und woher kommt die Nacht? Max weiß es. Er hat einen Schlüssel. Mit einem Klick öffnet er abends die geheimnisvolle blaue Kiste in seinem Zimmer, aus der die Nacht heraussaust, während der Tag hineinschlüpft. Und was für eine wunderbare Nacht das ist! Sie ist freundlich, schelmisch, sanft, riesig, mutig und beschützend, sie tanzt und wirbelt. Sie gibt jedem Ding, jedem Tier, jedem Menschen seinen Platz, sie wacht über alle und hält sie in ihren starken Armen. So kann Max mit seinem Teddy beruhigt in seinem kuscheligen Bett schlafen, bis die Nacht am Morgen dem neuen Tag die Bühne überlässt. Dieses poetische Bilderbuch zeigt die Nacht in einem ganz neuen Licht: als vergnügte, beschützende Freundin.
