10 Minutes Till Bedtime by Peggy Rathmann

5.0

10 Minutes till Bedtime by Peggy Rathmann is a seemingly thin read, but this book takes you (like Rathmann's other books - Good Night Gorilla and Officer Buckle and Gloria) into a picture world that overlaps with itself. I would recommend this to any child ages 2 1/2 -8. The story is rollicking from the moment "10 minutes till bed time" is shouted out by the father. We find the hamsters 10 minute bedtime tour is about to commence and from there it is a quick 10 minutes full of bedtime necessities. The hamster tour is amazing, Rathmann has great visuals that tell their own story within the story. It is fun to look at the illustrations and see new things each time. My kids still like me to shout out "10 minutes till bedtime" and they are much older than 8.
