"It's time for bed, Lolo!"With a sleeping cap on, Birdie is all tucked in, ready to sleep. Lolo the T. rex, however, has other plans. "No, gracias." But why? Because Lolo is one busy dino-Lolo has plans to play, eat, and play some more. After having a quick reading session, playing, and chowing down on cookies, Lolo is still not quite ready for bed. The comical exchanges between Birdie and Lolo-dino speaking in Spanish, bird translating and responding in English-perfectly depict the challenges of getting a reluctant sleeper to bed. Progress, of course, comes in increments as the exasperated blue bird convinces the orange dino to at least do some teeth brushing in the bathroom. Time for bed now? Nope! Clad in pajamas, the dino jumps onto the bed to play some more while an exhausted Birdie dozes off. "Buenas noches, Birdie." Full of bold lines and soft colors, Dominguez's clean artwork proves an impeccable complement to these nighttime escapades. The author leverages short, dynamic sentences and gentle repetition rooted in Lolo's defiant declarations and Birdie's wearied subsequent translations, to delightful effect. Scattered references to Lolo and Birdie's previous outing add a layer of giddy familiarity for fans of the pair.Bedtime fun with a pair of unlikely friends. (Picture book. 3-5)

This sweet and funny bilingual picture book series, from author Angela Dominguez, follows an adorable bird and tyrannosaurus rex as they navigate the hazards of bedtime, sharing, and friendship, in English and Spanish. Birdie is ready to go to bed, but when he approaches Lolo to say goodnight, Lolo isn't tired! Birdie tries everything to help Lolo get ready for bed: reading, snacks, brushing teeth, but Lolo has way too much to do. This delightful bilingual picture book is perfect for young readers who, like most, are reluctant for the day to end.
