The Big Bed

32 pp. | Farrar | February, 2018 | Trade ISBN 978-0-374-30123-1 $16.99
(3) K-3 Illustrated by Tom Knight. A brown-skinned, pig-tailed girl spends the length of this book telling her father why he should let her take his spot next to Mommy in the "big bed" ("Am I mistaken, or don't you already have a mommy?"). Knight's cartoony illustrations capture the imagined outcomes of the girl's hilarious hard sell--such as when ousted Daddy waves from a cot plunked somewhere in a forest.
