BOOK REVIEWS
Praise for Jake Stays Awake: Co-sleeping taken to the extreme is the topic of this debut. Wrights illustrations hysterically expand upon the text. The characters small eyes and elongated heads make for very droll facial expressions, while hidden details and the family dogs antics will keep readers in stitches. Co-sleeping parents who want to reclaim their territory may want to take notes.Kirkus Reviews Pleasantly rhyming text is paired with droll, stylized full- and double-page illustrations in bold colors and varying perspectives, and sight gags extend the fun for children and adults. All in all, a delicious treat of a bedtime book.School Library Journal
