Is It Time?
Is It Time?
Author: Marilyn Janovitz
Genre: Children's Books
Book Type: Paperback
reviewed on + 3 more book reviews


A charming 'getting ready for bed' book which, in rhyme, goes through each of the steps of bedtime (running a tub, washing, brushing fangs and combing bangs, putting on PJs, getting tucked in with Teddy, turning off the light.)

And it ends, 'Is it time to go to sleep?'
'Yes, it's time to go to sleep. Go to sleep
and dream of sheep.'

Simple line-drawing illustrations and repetitive rhymes. The parent wolf, shown giving the cub a kiss on the back cover, could be either a mother or a father. A sweet book!
