As enticing as a glittery petticoat.”—Publishers Weekly

From the Publisher

For Princess Baby, the bedtime chore list is practically endless: 1. Put on pajamas. 2. Toys need to be put away. 3. The best picture book ever has to be chosen for reading. 4. Teeth must be brushed. 5. The blankets have to be arranged in just the right way. Young readers and their parents will instantly identify with this pre-Slumberland routine. We can't think of a more appropriate "night night" book.

PreS-K

In this successor to Princess Baby (Random, 2008), the feisty, independent-minded heroine is asked various questions during her preparations for bedtime. "Princess Baby, did you pick up all your toys?" "Yes, I picked them up," she responds, and is shown cuddling all of her stuffed animals at once. Although Princess Baby protests that she is not tired, a satisfying conclusion shows her asleep on the floor after reading books to her stuffed animals and tucking them in. As in the earlier title, fuchsia and other rosy tones dominate the illustrations. Purchase if the first book has a following.-Blair Christolon, Prince William Public Library System, Manassas, VA
