BV Library Checkout.

Second read is me.

[Ruth · Rating 3 out of 5]

THis was okay. Not sure it was a positive way of helping a child to fall asleep however. Seemed to make a lot of excuses to not go to sleep.

good early reader, using text to relate to the television show

[Karen · Rating 2 out of 5]

Um... the illustrations are kind of cute, but the text felt WAY too much like the rehash from a television show.
