The Sleepy Book

Diane Muldrow. Cartwheel Books, $8.95 (14pp) ISBN 978-0-439-39494-9

For winding down, The Sleepy Book by Diane Muldrow, illus. by Patti Ann Harris, offers a lulling, rhyming text: ""Look out the window / it's the end of the day./ The sun is slowly fading away."" Each spread offers a touch-and-feel element, from the sun in the opening spread, to a Teddy bear's tummy at the end.
