Little Hoot

By: Amy Krouse Rosenthal

Narrated by: Abby Sher

It's not fair! All Little Owl wants is to go to bed at a reasonable hour, like his friends do. But no . . . Mama and Papa say little owls have to stay up late and play. So Little Owl spends all night jumping on his bed, playing on the jungle gym, and doing tricks on his skateboard - but he's hooting mad about it !

Children who have a hard time going to bed will love this fun twist on the universal dilemma.

Fun Story for Any Little Bedtime Owl

"Little Hoot" is a great little bedtime story about an owl who wants to go to bed when his other animal friends do, but instead his parents make him stay up late and play because that's what good little owls do.

While this recording doesn't have all the bells and whistles that some performances does, Abby Sher has a really fun voice that lends itself well to kid characters.

We also love Sher's recording of "Little Pea" about the pea who has to eat all his candy dinner before he can have his spinach dessert (in fact if you have to choose one, my kids prefer this one but I think that's just because they like candy so much themselves), and I hope audible does some more of this tongue in cheek series by Rosenthal.
