Review

The unlikely siblings, two ducklings and their green dinosaur brother Spike, are back in their second adventure. The nighttime routine and learning to sleep in their own bed, or nest, is the challenge of the evening. Each time they finally get settled in, they are woken up by a loud "Grrore". Solving the problem of the frightening sound becomes the adventure as the three repeat the same pattern of share a story, snuggle and fall asleep. Spike's fearfulness provides the humor in the cadence of the words and in the stylized illustrations. Perfect for a comical story time around the theme of sleep.

Overall Book Score: good
