Goodnight Already! by Jory John - ESSENTIAL

John, Jory Goodnight Already! And Benji Davies.  PICTURE BOOK.  Harper, 2015. $18.  Content: G.  

Bear is really, really tired and all he wants to do is go to sleep.  His next door neighbor Goose, however, is wide awake and want Bear to keep him company.  What is Bear going to have to do to get his exhaustion through to Goose?

I hope John and Davies team up again soon – I had a grand time enjoying their first partnership.  The illustrations are spot on for the feel and message of the book.  It will be fun for the parent (teacher) to read aloud as it is for the students to hear it.
