(4) K-3 Illustrated by Miriam Latimer. Although Ruby couldn't be more excited about the idea of sleeping in a tent in the backyard with her friend Mai, her imagination takes her from her safe sleeping bag to some dark, scary places before she falls asleep. The rhymes hit a few potholes, but it's an eminently relatable premise, and the chiaroscuro in Latimer's art is astute.
