The little Prince refuses to go to bed despite the many sleep-inducing suggestions offered by well-meaning acquaintances. After trying tricks ranging from hypnotism to medicine, a grandmotherly looking woman arrives with a century-old solution that will delight readers-try a book. Average-quality rhymed couplets are easily read aloud (except perhaps for the tongue-twisting page that rhymes present, pheasant, peasant, and unpleasant). Cartoonlike illustrations in colorful acrylics and collage move the action along. Stylized sheep decorate the endpapers as well as the wallpaper in the boy's bedroom. Pair this with similarly themed titles such as Carole Lexa Schaefer's Down in the Woods at Sleepytime (Candlewick, 2000) to create a bedtime ritual.
