Meng, Cece Bedtime is Cancelled, illustrated by Aurelie
Neyret. Clarion (Houghton), 2013. $17.
Content: G. PICTURE BOOK.
A brother and sister try to fool their
parents with an “official” announcement that bedtime has been cancelled. Of course the parents aren’t fooled. The message, however is swept away by the
wind and end sup being picked up by newspaper, tv and radio and a real
proclamation, with unintended consequences.
Neyret’s cartoon-y style works with this silly message. Pair this with Scaredy Squirrel at Night and
you have the bones of a fun bedtime-themed read aloud session!
