I'm Not Tired Yet!

(4) K-3 "Ralphie Mix, at age six, didn't want to go to bed." So begins Ralphie's bedtime routine with his mom, complete with goldfish kisses, gorilla hugs, caterpillar tickles, and other gestures of affection. The double-page illustrations alternate mother and child scenes with pictures of the various animals, which accounts for some awkward transitions between spreads. The rhyming text doesn't always scan smoothly.
