Told within the confines of a nontraditional family, children being raised by their grandparents can finally see themselves in print.\n\nGrandma I don't want to go to Sleep is an excellent storyline of inclusion utilizing people of color as characters within a universal setting. This book can also be used to help a more mature child come to terms with the concept of loss. From toddlers enjoying it as a straightforward adventure, to high school students analyzing the prose as poetry, Grandma I don't want to go to sleep is an entertaining journey.\n\nFrom the title on the cover, to the final stanza, this book intimates that it is not your everyday children's book. Written in the tradition of Where the Wild Things Are or The Little Prince with a touch of Grimm, this layered story can serve as the ultimate bedtime story that children will want to read again and again.
