Bedtime at the Swamp

(4) K-3 Illustrated by Macky Pamintuan. Rhymed text interspersed with a "Splish splash rumba-rumba bim bam BOOM!" refrain tells the story of a boy "sittin' by a swamp." He gets freaked out by monster sounds, only to discover, with relief, that the noises are actually coming from a benign source close to his heart. Digital illustrations with blue-greenish backgrounds have a synthetic look but effectively highlight the humor.
