Goodnight Everyone by Chris Haughton - OPTIONAL

Haughton, Chris  Goodnight Everyone  PICTURE BOOK  Candlewick Press, 2016.  $15.99  Content: G.  

All of the forest animals are getting sleepy, except for Little Bear.  He wanders among his friends and asks if they want to play but they are all ready for bed.  All the wandering makes bear sleepy too.  Little Bear’s mother takes him and puts him to bed.  All the forest is asleep.  

This is a good bedtime story with cute little animals.  The illustrations are done with few bold colors and there is a portion of the book with shorter pages that show the different animals getting tired.  The front and back inside covers have star constellations and pictures of the solar system.  The story isn’t anything new but the illustrations are new and fun.
