K-3I Can Read Book series.
Illustrated by
Yossi Abolafia.
This collection is repackaged in an easy-reader format. The poems capture the frustration of trying to go to sleep before you're tired, the nighttime worry about strange sounds and creatures, the dreamlike trance that precedes sleep, and the beauty of the evening. Prelutsky's simple, inventive wordplay is enhanced by Abolafia's lively illustrations.
