In my humble opinion, this book is a classic! It was written in 1975, so there's a good chance many of you have read it. Isn't it wonderful?
Ira, having been invited to spend the night at his best friend Reggie's house, thinks nothing of bringing his teddy bear, Tah Tah. That is, until his sister points out that only babies sleep with a stuffed animal.
Suddenly, the excitement Ira felt about the sleepover has been replaced by anxiety as he wonders how to handle the situation.
I think this book echo's a child's concerns perfectly - it's great writing. My own kids must have their stuffed animals tucked in next to them at night or there will be no sleeping in our house. So I can imagine that this issue might come up once or twice in the next few years.
