Editorial Reviews

School Library Journal

PreS

Each book tackles a problematic transition that many children go through. Bed and Sit Still include a small story about a child with the title concern and how the parents solve it. The other two are more universal, highlighting a series of different situations and depicting a multiethnic cast of children. The illustrations are amateurish, portraying round-headed, round-eyed children on pastel backgrounds. The back matter includes step-by-step advice in handling the title situation, a Web site to help, and a disclaimer stating that the publisher is not "engaged in rendering psychological or other professional services." Perhaps not, but these titles read more like an attempt at self-help books for children and their parents than any form of literature. There are plenty of good books that deal with developmental issues. Leave these titles for the pediatrician's office.-Amy Lilien-Harper, The Ferguson Library, Stamford, CT
