It' s time for bed! And this little octopus is happy to volunteer: he' ll put HIS PARENTS to bed! Bathtime, putting on pyjamas, and tucking everyone in at last is a whole new challenge when the kid is in charge (and everyone has eight arms!). From bestselling author Sherri Duskey Rinker and award-winning illustrator Viviane Schwarz comes a romping, rhyming, hilarious tale sure to entertain all wiggly bedtime readers.
"Illustrations . . . are large, bright, and engaging. . . . Rhyming text, which moves around the pages, and humorous pictures reveal the family' s bedtime escapades. . . . This fun read-aloud will keep kids giggling. "-Booklist "Schwarz' s bright, cartoon art depicts the octopus family as rounded, downright cuddly beings in bright hues that capture the lively spirit of the text. Silly, wiggly, giggly fun. "-- Kirkus Reviews
