Singer Carly Simon's warm and charming story of a little bear named Amy, who would rather dance than sleep. Beautifully illustrated, entertaining bedtime reading for sleepless children and adults alike.
PreSchool-K-- Amy, an auburn-haired young bear, insists on dancing despite her mother's requests that she prepare for bed. Finally, daughter tucks in a tired mother, as a bear-shaped constellation dances in the sky. The cloying prose, printed in difficult-to-read italics, may provide some merriment for adult readers, who will be astounded by its pretentiousness. For example, "Amy threw her hands off in another direction and the rest of her body followed" evokes strange visions of someone hurtling across the room. Conversation is self-conscious and stilted. The mother begins her third request, "Amy, you know I am not harsh or strict and never utter a sound that resembles a bark in your direction, but really my child, you push me to the limit." The romanticized illustrations create an idyllic cottage for the pair's home. Each picture is encircled by a wreath of flowers or fruit. Datz' depiction of flora is superior to her renditions of the major characters, who seem to be neither bear nor human. Sweetness practically oozes through the book's covers. --Kathy Piehl, Mankato State University, MN
