      PreS-Onomatopoeic words are the sole textual cues in this creative example of storytelling, which relies on the readers' interpretations of an amusing variety of sights and sounds in order to understand the choices of a young girl reluctantly going about her bedtime routine. Those who do similar tasks will catch on quickly. VERDICT Kerbel never fails to delight, and this one will have lapsitters giggling off to dream time.
