BUYING ADVISORY: Pre-K – ADVISABLE
AUDIENCE APPEAL: HIGH
Reindeer announces that it’s time for him to go to bed. There’s just one problem: he keeps crawling in to each of his friends’ beds, thinking they are his own. Each creature has their own unique bed that’s just right for them. Will Reindeer find his?
The pack of animals that make up reindeer’s friends are adorable, each sweetly fitting into their own beds, including mice in their tiny hammocks. At the end, the book emphasizes everyone sleeping best in their own beds, which parents will love. Reindeer sleepily stumbling and trying clumsily to fit in everyone else’s bed will delight younger children – that along with the fold out pages would make it great for story time.
