Every critter--even children--can balk at
bedtime. What does a Southwest critter do when Papa and Mama say,
"It's time for Bed?" Does he hop on the bed and bounce for an
hour? Or does he scoot into bed and snuggle in tight, and offer big hugs
and then say "good night?"
Cute critters comically define what not to do
when it's time for bed in Bedtime in the Southwest, a mellifluous,
rhyming lullaby that will help kids make the transition from a busy day
to a restful night. The book's tender rhymes and illustrations highlight
a favorite subject for parents, and a gentle bedtime lesson for
children.
