At first, young Bertie doesn't want to eat supper because he is busy playing. Dad says he will<br> play with Bertie after supper and toothbrushing, and he keeps his promise chasing Bertie, giving him a<br> fun bath, and playing hide-and-seek. After three books (including classics such as Good Night, Hippo) and<br> a quick succession of bedtime dances, at least one hippo is ready for bed: Dad. Pfister's hippos are an<br> irresistible pair, full of sweetness and life. Although Pfister uses a single floral pattern for wallpaper, <br> flooring, furniture, and clothes, he keeps the art from becoming boring by running the pattern through<br> vivid and appealing shades of purple, blue, green, pink, and orange. The book's last spread is a charmer: as<br> Dad lies curled up on a bundle of blankets and pillows, Bertie cuddles up close. "Good night, Daddy," he<br> says. "Tomorrow we can play some more."</p>"<br><br><P>Booklist Reviews Bertie At Bedtime: <P>Bertie and his father may be hippos, but this story of getting a child fed and ready for bed is universal and<BR> familiar.
