No More Bedtime! by Chuck Richards - ADVISABLE

No More Bedtime! by Chuck Richards, PICTURE BOOK Crown (Penguin Random House), 2019. $18. 9780553535617

BUYING ADVISORY: EL (K-3) - ADVISABLE 

AUDIENCE APPEAL: AVERAGE 

Elliott is an inventor - he spends most days thinking up new fun inventions. When he is punished with an early bedtime for turning the clock back, Elliot invents a machine that stops the earth from spinning. However, soon Elliot realizes that one very very long day isn't a great idea after all. 

Chuck Richards illustrations are fantastic! Realistic and whimsical, they add so much to the story - Elliot's inventions are clever and ridiculous, the children are adorable and the situations are so fun. I wish Elliot had been one of my friends! A great bedtime story, I was certainly tired after all that playing.
