My Room Is a Zoo!

It's bedtime. It should be quiet. But not if your room is a zoo! A young boy is kept awake by his toy animals (26 of them, from A to Z) who employ all the bedtime delay tactics they can muster. Armadillo takes his pillow, Crocodile wants a drink, Narwhal needs to brush his tooth, Owl and Possum argue about the lights, and Zebra hides under the bed. Finally, the boy steps up and puts a stop to the animals' shenanigans so he can get some sleep. An entire alphabet of raucous stuffed animals keeps an imaginative boy up at bedtime with endless demands and squabbles. Finally, he becomes the "parent" so he can get to sleep in this rhyming, illustrated picture book. Reviewed original artwork
