- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5A brother and sister dance their way through their going-to-bed routine in this rhyming storybook, assisted by Mom, and eventually Dad. From bath-time to story-time, they engage in the titular 'jammy dance,' turning their bedtime into one long romp, until eventually they're tired enough to go to sleep.I always find that rhyming texts work very well for younger children, keeping them involved with the musicality of the reading process, even when they don't understand every word, so I appreciated that aspect of Jammy Dance. I can't say this was a particular favorite otherwise, from either a narrative or illustrative standpoint, but it was very sweet, and I imagine will hit the right note for some parents and children. Recommended to anyone looking for rhyming bedtime books that celebrate the restless spirit that sometimes keeps children up.
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Will make for lively bedtime reading.
