Sandra Boynton's board book shows a crowd of animals getting ready for bed, with a bright, rhyming text about pajamas. Pigs, hippos, cows, and other creatures put on striped pajamas, hop around, and settle down at the end. The verses have a bouncy beat, with a rhythm that slows toward bedtime, and the drawings are funny and simple.
Parents and caregivers of babies and toddlers will find it good for reading aloud as part of a bedtime routine. Its sturdy pages stand up to small hands, and its jokes keep adults amused through repeated readings.
Practical, outward-looking, clear-cut and escapist; an easy read.
Best for readers like The Practical Optimizer. Which reader are you?
