PICTURE BOOKS
(2) K-3 Readers get the feeling that things are not what they appear when a dragon, clutching a book, winks at them. The creature snuggles in to hear its bedtime story--a tale of a dragon who has "never, / His whole life, / (Not once) been to bed." With surprising die-cuts and satisfying metafictive elements, Gravett takes that I-don't-want-to-go-to-sleep trope to a new level.
