Publisher Description: "A touching and familiar children's picture book about postponing the ritual of going to sleep." - Children's and Teen Book Connections "A loquacious child's chatter delays bedtime in this children's picture book. Readers will enjoy watching Oliver's green toy T. Rex, which falls asleep along with him." - Kirkus Review Nominated for the Literary Award: CLEL Bell Picture Book Awards Nominee for Talk (2018) and a Finalist of the Crystal Kite Award, New England region, 2018 It's bedtime and Oliver should go to sleep. But there is so much Oliver has to tell his mother first - everything that happened that day, every little thing he noticed that day, all the books he has read, everything that he sees around him... And of course, that he loves her. A sweet and oh so recognizable bedtime story about the bedtime ritual (and postponing it). For children ages 4 and up. |
