I am always on the lookout for a great children's book - one that is both interesting to adults and kids. I have found one such book, Little Hoot by Amy Krouse Rosenthal.
It is basically the story of a little owl who wants to go to bed and his parents make him stay up. Little Hoot pleads with his parents to let him go to bed, but as they are owls, they must stay up late. Much to Little Hoot's chagrin! It is terribly cute and is a twist on the tired theme of children's bedtime stories. The art work is just as wonderful! Ms. Rosenthal has done two other great books (Little Pea and Little Oink), though I have not had the pleasure of reading them as of yet.
So, if you are seeking a great children's book for the summer, looking for a birthday or holiday gift for a child, this is a perfect winner! Isabelle enjoys the book, and she is 3.5 years old. I would say this book would be good for ages 2 to 5 years.
Happy Reading!!
