Little Bo Peep Can't Get to Sleep

Again, my favorite illustrator- fun rhyming story with a great beat. The kids love it and I love reading it over and over! Mommy's High Heel Shoes

I love this book! I got it at the library, and ready it every night. Not sure if my kids loved it, but they let me read it because I had so much fun reading it. My kids get enthusiastic when I am enthusiastic. I had to buy the book, and all (ok, could only find one more) that the author had written!

We got this book for my daughter's 4th birthday. She loves to read it at bedtime.

Who knew Little Bo Peep's brother was Little Boy Blue? Or that his shenanigans (those darn little brothers!) caused her sheep to go missing, giving Poor Peep a sleepless night? The author has artfully lifted characters from an assortment of well-loved fairy tales and created something witty and new. Written in bouncy rhyme, with cameos by Humpty Dumpty, Jack and Jill, and the Farmer in the Dell, and others, this charming story will have little ones nodding in recognition at the familiar names, while they root for the reunion that will allow Peep to get her beauty sleep. Terrific for bedtime, or story hour. The stylized illustrations have a funky retro look that adds to the appeal.

This is a very cute book with great rhyming words and an appearance by many Mother Goose favorites. It is a fun story with a moral about telling the truth. My niece loved Ms. Dealey's first book, Goldie Locks Has Chicken Pox, and was excited to see this one that is similar in style. The retro drawings are very clever. Great young reader book!
