The Bedtime Showdown

On Teddy Bear Lane live two brothers who take bedtime very, very seriously--as a full-contact sport.

Wilder, age nine (aka "The Bedtime Beast") and Dash, age five (aka "The Dino Dropper") don't hate bedtime. They just can't seem to get there without a Couch Slam, a Toy Chest Elbow, and a full-blown wrestling showdown complete with tissue-flag capes and a "Laser Lullaby" flashlight. Stuffed animals go flying. Battle cries echo down the hall. And bedtime keeps getting pushed later and later... until Mom appears in the doorway with a secret weapon no wrestling move can beat: her toothbrush "guitar" and a lullaby that wraps the whole room in a hug.

Told in bouncy, laugh-out-loud rhyme, The Bedtime Showdown is the first book in the Adventures of Wilder and Dash series--a hilarious, high-energy read-aloud for kids who'd rather do anything except go to sleep, and for the parents who love them (and are ready for a truce). Perfect for siblings, wrestling fans, and anyone who's ever had to referee a bedtime battle of their own.

Grab your flashlight, tuck in your stuffed dinosaur, and get ready for the silliest showdown bedtime has ever seen.
