Put your dancing shoes on and get ready
to polka! With chocolate brown cows
and polka dotted sheep, how can anyone
expect baby to go to sleep? This
wonderfully adorable lift-the-flap book
helps us dance our way through a farm
day. When naptime comes the last thing
baby wants to do is sleep. So, while
Mom and Dad are trying to do
their chores hauling the water and
fixing the chow, baby is doing the
boogie-woogie with all the farm
animals. Clever rhyming text and
highly colored illustrations help make
this a great book to share with your
favorite little dancer.

the rainbow. The bright colors and
unusual shape of Frances Barry's book

A little one gets ready for bed by
saying goodnight to everything from
fingers and toes to doors and chairs.
Krauss's soothing words will help the
restless child get ready for bed.
Dyer's illustrations result in a
calming effect to the child in this
story. A must read especially before
bedtime.
