From School Library Journal:
PreSchool-Grade 1—This third "Bear with Sticky Paws" book lacks focus. Lily won't go to bed and insists that it's still time to play. It's only after a small white bear shows up at the door with a suitcase and flies her off to an island party with grass skirts and sticky treats that Lily is worn out enough to admit defeat to sleep. The dialogue is stilted, and with a counting section stuck in the middle of the narrative, it feels more like the confused imaginings of a dream rather than a cohesive story. Is it a counting book? A tale of two friends and a little girl's imagination? Is it a bedtime story? While a book could certainly be all three, these elements are not woven together effectively. The vibrant pastel drawings illustrate the child's imaginings of smiling animal friends and island parties. However, the text sounds like one that a parent concocts at bedtime off the cuff. Stick to Margaret Wise Brown's Goodnight Moon (HarperCollins, 1947), Mo Willems's Don't Let the Pigeon Stay Up Late (Hyperion, 2006), and Anna Dewdney's Llama, Llama Red Pajama (Viking, 2005) for more engaging bedtime stories.—Sarah Townsend, Norfolk Public Library, VA
