The beautiful, if slightly sinister, thing about “The Rabbit Who Wants to Fall Asleep” is that it functions less as cultural propaganda than as authoritarian diktat. Its explicit aim is to bring about in your child — through the sedative effects of repetition, through extreme dullness, through strategically staged yawns — a state of narrative-induced anesthesia.
