Cornelius P. Mud, Are You Ready for Bed?

Author/Illustrator: Barney Saltzberg
Year: 2005
Age Level: 2-7

Plot Summary: It's time for Cornelius's bedtime and his Mom asks him a series of questions. Has he put his toys away? Yes...in the fridge. Did he feed his fish? Yes...a handful of cookies. Eventually Cornelius is tucked into bed and all he wants then is a hug.

Red flags: kid antics--the kind you wouldn't want to give your kids ideas about doing. Unless you want cookies in your fish tank that is.

My Rating: B+. This was a fun book. Lively, and just right for younger kids. But again...is this something you want to give kids ideas about?
