BUYING ADVISORY:  Pre-K - NO

AUDIENCE APPEAL: LOW

This wordless board book features a little girl going through all the steps of  getting ready for bedtime. She gets in the bath, gets in PJs, brushes her teeth, hears a story, then her dad rescues her from the monster under the bed.

I’m not big on the monster under the bed concept. If your child doesn’t know it, I certainly don’t want to introduce it to a pre-k child. This book is very basic and since it is wordless it could work for children of multiple languages, though it might not match bedtime routines culturally.
