"This is a glorious answer to the question behind 'to see what he could see,' and gives children many more choruses and opportunities for practicing vocabulary. Antic, lovable scenes of smiling creatures and verses that quickly become familiar guarantee this a spot on most shelves." -- School Library Journal "Cabrera has once again made a traditional kid's song into a storytime pleaser. It won't take even one full read-through for kids to be singing along, and when they see themselves in the sweet twist at the close, they'll likely giggle with glee. Her acrylic paintings are, as usual, lush and lovely. Jaunty out of the gate--such fun." -- Kirkus Reviews "While this is not the first picture book to end with a child tucked into bed along with stuffies or other toys that had been depicted as real earlier in the illustrations, it's among the most satisfying. What's more, the vibrant, colorful artwork turns the song into a bedtime book that's sure to inspire encores.
Can sleep be far behind? A cheerful singalong book to share with a preschool class or a single child."-- Booklist.
