Reviews for Fiona, It's Bedtime

[vintagebeckie · Rating: 4 out of 5 stars]

My granddaughter loves being read to. So we are always on the lookout for a good book that will engage her curiosity with fun verse and colorful illustrations. Fiona, It’s Bedtime does just that. Each page of this soon-to-be bedtime favorite shows members of the zoo family getting ready for bedtime. The cheetahs snuggle in their mother’s fur, the koalas wrap themselves around the trees, and the flamingo’s balance on one foot. I loved how the animals’ uniqueness is expressed. The book is sturdy as well and will hold up against the many times it will be presented for reading time. I can’t wait to share it!Recommended.Audience: preschoolers(Thanks to Zonderkidz for a complimentary copy. All opinions expressed are mine alone.)
