In this engaging bedtime 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.
