Time for bed, Daddy

Dave Hackett
UQP
ISBN: 9780702253812
RRP: $24.95

The larrikin humour comes through clearly in this story that turns the tables on bedtime routine. Daddy doesn’t want to go to bed and comes up with all the excuses a child would to avoid that final moment of the day in going to bed. Young readers are not fooled; they know where the fun is being poked. The cartooned illustrations in bold pyjama-striped theme extend the fun in this family-familiar read-aloud.
