Wibbly Pig does not want to go to bed, and that makes this story one many youngsters will relate to. The mischievous pig bathes, reads, has a drink, dawdles while brushing his teeth, and employs many other familiar stall tactics. Young readers will love the illustrations of Wibbly Pig taking his time on the toilet, drying his toes, and bouncing on the bed—his impish grin ever-present as he avoids the dreaded bedtime. Of course, once he is tucked in, it is not long before Wibbly Pig has drifted off to dreamland. Do not miss the fold-out picture at the end of Wibbly Pig on his way to sweet dreams with friends Pigley, Flop, and Dimple. The short, simple sentences make this book a good read-aloud, and the pace keeps moving, ever closer to bedtime. 2004, Viking/Penguin, Ages 4 to 8.
