Chicken Bedtime Is Really Early

(3) PS Illustrated by George Bates. Who knew? Young farm animals are as expert at forestalling bedtime as their human counterparts: lambs and calves don't come indoors when their mamas call, fish in a pond demand drinks of water, etc. The rhymes (including the improvised ones: "girlie" and "early," "mommies" and "pajamies") work because they're as bouncy as the textured acrylic illustrations are inviting.
