Bedtime for Sweet Creatures by Nikki Grimes, Elizabeth Zunon

This is a sweet little tale of a young girl who doesn't want to go to bed.  She thinks there are monsters under her bed, but her Mom chases them all away...

Sourcebooks Jabberwocky and Edelweiss allowed me to download and read this book.  It has already been published, so you can grab a copy now.

First, she gets up for a glass of water.  Then she gets up to use the bathroom.  When Mom and Dad go to bed, they hear a little voice asking if she can sleep with them.  When she gets in bed all the animals she's imagined crawl in as well.  And everyone goes nighty nite...

The illustrations are colorful and fun.
