Editorial Reviews

From School Library Journal
PreSchool-K-- The title question is answered in this conceptually original but marginally successful counting book. One by one, a little girl, her brother, baby sister, and mother all join Dad in bed. This makes "ten feet in the bed." And then, one by one, each family member leaves the snug bed to start the day, and only a sleepy teddy bear remains behind. Each double-page illustration captures the happiness of the family and this cozy Sunday morning. For easy counting by readers, the feet are always visible but not obtrusive. Drawn in pastels or colored pencil, the realistic pictures are the book's most prominent and distinctive feature. The text is brief and to the point, but mediocre. Occasionally the last word in a sentence rhymes, but this attempt to provide a story in poetry form is not consistent throughout. --April L. Judge, Thousand Oaks Library, CA
