Description
Book SynopsisIn this book, beloved author-illustrator Suzanne Bloom asks readers how they prepare for bed--from putting on jammies to asking for one more hug--then counts down to bedtime from ten terribly tired tigers to one really weary wombat. Each animal demonstrates a different bedtime ritual--skunks somersault into bunks and elephants curl up with their trunks--adding original and inventive rhymes and a clever counting-backward structure to the bedtime book genre. The lyrical, rhyming text combines with dreamy, colorful artwork to provide a perfect way for children to wind down from an active day in a book sure to become a new bedtime classic.
Trade Review"A bedtime-book/concept-book mashup for little ones... (a)lliteration and unusual animal choices add textual appeal... Count on this as a solid bedtime-book choice."--Kirkus Reviews "Rhyme, alliteration, and cozy images make this excellent selection ideal for read-alouds."--School Library Journal
