dreamland than through the lilting rhythms of poetry. Inspired by nature, travel, and family, children’s author and poet Jean Horst offers a collection of perfect poems for bedtime reading. Featuring fun animal characters—ducks, bunnies, monkeys, and bugs—on all sorts of adventures, Best Bedtime Rhymes will spark your kids’ imaginations and have them dreaming sweet dreams in no time. Fans of Horst’s previous books, Race at Bedbug Park and Tobogganing the Great Wall of China, which follow the brave and curious little bedbug Pintsize Plasma, will be glad to find him starring in the poems “Snark in the Park” and “Covered in Bean Juice and Bacon and Corned Beef Hash.” While kids will love the fun adventures and sometimes-silly escapades, parents will appreciate the value of family woven throughout the rhymes—and both young and old will want to return to these poems night after night.
