Brief reviews and thoughts about children's and young adult books by Minnesota authors (or illustrators), or about Minnesota. If I get the urge, it may also include ideas for using the books in the classroom. The emphasis is on books published since 1995, but don't be surprised if an oldie-but-goodie slips in occasionally.

What's that noise?
It's bedtime, and mom and dad have tucked Ben and Alex into bed. But then the night noises start, and Ben is really scared. He wants Alex to come sleep in his bed, and sing him a song. Alex is himself, afraid of the cold floor and the monster that might grab his feet. This is a fun bedtime story to keep the scarry noises away. Co-authored by Michelle Edwards and Phyllis Root, with illustrations by Paul Meisel, it could become a family favorite.
