Topsy-Turvy Bedtime

(3) PS Illustrated by Tony Auth. Arathusela hates going to bed. Her parents are exhausted by day's end, so they reverse roles with her. The book is a one-note joke, but kids will appreciate the tables-turned humor ("You forgot to sing us a song") and reassuring resolution. Auth has a light touch; his watercolors display the particular coziness of domestic life at night.
