Bedtime Ted by Sophy Henn -OPTIONAL

Bedtime Ted bySophy Henn . BOARD BOOK. Abrams. 2018. $9. 9781419727573

BUYING ADVISORY: Pre-K – OPTIONAL

AUDIENCE APPEAL: HIGH

This book is about a little boy named Ted whose parent keeps calling for bedtime. Each time, he says not yet…then the reader must lift the flap to find out why. From brushing his teeth with a crocodile, to get the wiggles out with a kangaroo. Finally Ted settles into bed with his stuffed animals, that are suspiciously like his playmates from his bedtime excuses.  

This is a darling book with a lot of imagination. Its short and fun to read with a child who can lift the flap to discover what Ted is up to. The cover is bright and appealing and so are all the illustrations.  There isn’t a real educational component so a pre-k classroom might pass on this one and leave it for a read at home before bed with parents kind of story.
