About this title

About the Author:

written and illustrated by Ruth Ohi

From School Library Journal:

PreS-This Spanish translation of author/illustrator Ohi's Shh! My Brother Is Napping offers a story of sibling relations told with warmth and humor. After a trying shopping outing, with Mama Mouse juggling shopping bags, umbrella, stroller, and squealing baby brother, the family is now home and baby brother is thankfully asleep. But for how long? Big brother is trying very hard to keep his activities quiet, though he does need to be gently reminded throughout the story that his brother is slumbering. Simple text allows funny details in the cheery line and watercolor illustrations to extend the story. Children and their adult readers will laugh at the precariousness of the "quiet" situations portrayed. And yes, in the end it is too much, and baby brother is woken up with a big "¡Pataplaffff!" Not to worry, baby brother has worn off his crankiness, and the two enjoy playing until it is now big brother who drops off to sleep. Readers will recognize the familiar conflict of emotions typical of most sibling relations, and smile at the honest portrayal. VERDICT Recommended for the picture book sections of libraries with Spanish collections.-Lucia Acosta, Children's Literature Specialist, NJα(c) Copyright 2011.
