Leela hope once again gives us a well written rhyming book with excellent illustrations that focuses on a common problem with children (this time it is bedtime problems) and offers a way to correct that trait.Ned is a good boy with one flaw - he never went to bed, exasperating his parents and giving him the nickname Naughty Ned. In the evenings he would eat his dinner, bathe, play with his toys and the clean his room, but as the hour of bedtime approached he could only hope for a miracle that the clock would not reach bedtime hour. He declared he was superman and despite the fact that he disturbed his parents sleep he would stay up all night. BUT in staying up all night he was tired and listless and didn't eat breakfast well or perform in school, and when school is oven ad he goes home his loving mother reassures him that he will be fine as long as he gets his needed sleep. Ned has learned an important lesson.The writing is charming in a fine rhyme sequence, the illustrations are excellent and the book carries another fine lesson for children to sleep on...!
