10 Little Ninjas

(4) PS Illustrated by Nate Wragg. Relying on rather clunky rhymes, this update of the classic countdown story begins with ten little ninjas sneaking out of bed. The progression varies each time, with nine astronauts zooming, five sharks swimming, and eventually one "cuddlebug...dozed off on Daddy's head." Imaginative, brightly colored digital illustrations capture the children's nighttime energy, as Dad calls on costumed Mom (the sensei/pilot/lifeguard) to settle them for bed.
