A delightfully diverse collection for reading aloud to young people just before bedtime or naptime

Now in its eleventh edition, Say Good Night To Illiteracy is an affordably priced hardcover anthology of stories and poems from a wide variety of authors, chosen through Half Price Books' Bedtime Storybook Writing Contest. Each story or poem takes up a two-page spread, complete with color illustrations in a different style fitting the tone of the narrative. Proceeds from this ingenious and inventive anthology will be donated to local literacy groups and Literacy USA. A delightfully diverse collection for reading aloud to young people just before bedtime or naptime. "Stuck": First came the firemen, then the police, / to hold back the crowd and keep up the peace. / The next ones to come were women and men / who cover the stories on news channel 10. / Oh my! What a fun bunch of people you see, / when you get your pet elephant stuck in a tree!
