She has also worked on community art projects, street theatre props, and as a graphic designer. Penny's titles include bestselling books The Boy on the Bus (9781406312331), Princess, Princess (9781844284658) and Ten in the Bed (9781406300352), as well as Once There Were Giants (9780744578362) and the 1980 Kate Greenaway Medal-winning Rosie's Babies (9780744523355), both written by Martin Waddell. She lives in Newport, Wales.
PreSchool-As in their previous appearance in Ten Out of Bed (Candlewick, 1996), a boy and his stuffed-animal friends turn bedtime into playtime. While the child counts to 10, his 9 toys scramble for hiding places and are discovered one by one. The detailed, full-color illustrations recall the expressiveness of the artist's work in Big Brother, Little Brother (Candlewick, 1997), as the youngster's face shows the puzzlement and delight inherent in a game of hide-and-seek. Young listeners will enjoy studying the pictures for the hint of a zebra's eye or the tip of a porcupine's quill that reveal the animals' locations. The text, unfortunately, does not quite match the smooth innocence of the artwork. At times rhyming, at times not even rhythmic, the narrative is a bit awkward. Purchase this title where more not-quite-ready-for-bed stories are needed or where Penny Dale's work is popular.
