The story was originally written as an original lullaby the second-time-mom-to-be wrote for her first child, daughter River. In the tale, a little girl visits the zoo and enjoyed her time there so much that she has a tough time falling asleep later.

The inspiration from the book came from the American Idol champ’s own adventures with her kid. The “Breakaway” singer welcomed her first child with husband Brandon Blackstock in June 2014.
