Synopses & Reviews
"A young boy pleads with his older sister for some bedtime stories, and Lulu obliges with some brief, highly imaginative tales that are matched to perfection with Kalman's friendly illustrations, electric and eccentric. Childlike but with a cutting, surreal edge, these pictures are wildly funny. This is a free-spirited book that will engage children on many levels." (School Library Journal)
Synopsis
As a brother and sister imagine their bedtime stories, Kalman paints a fantastic picture of the creative world of children. Full of wild invention and peopled by characters familiar and outlandish, it is a world of wonders. Full-color illustrations.
