Montanari, Susan McElroy

Hip-Hop Lollipop

(3) PS Illustrated by Brian Pinkney. It's bedtime, but Lollie is too busy dancing hip-hop to go to sleep just yet. Montanari's rhythmic rhyming prose ("Arms cranking / Body swanking / Hip gyration / Exultation!") follows Lollie's exuberant bedtime routine, from teeth brushing to putting on pajamas. Pinkney's festive, swirl-heavy watercolor and ink illustrations enhance this energetic story, which--despite all odds--does end in sleep.
