Goodnight Already!

Written by Jory John, Illustrated by Benji Davies

Bear and Duck are neighbors. Bear is soooo tired and wants to go to sleep. Duck wants to stay awake. Duck keeps pestering Bear. Ducks pranks to stay awake become more and more outrageous as he tries to stay awake and keep Bear awake. The animals live in people homes and do people things. It just makes the pictures more endearing to see Duck sitting on a stool, drinking coffee and reading a book or other things they do like bear sleeping in bed with a stuffed toy. I love this short story. The students I have read it too were laughing so hard at the end– even the 6th graders.
