Illustrated by
Laura J. Bryant.
A kitten resists her mother's efforts to prepare her for bed. While the kitty offers excuses at every step of the way, as detailed in lilting rhymes, the pictures show that she eventually does do what's expected (e.g., while playing a quick game of peekaboo, she's also changing out of her shirt). Watercolor and colored-pencil illustrations give the characters winsome expressions.
