Dawson's Pajama Drama

Happy Multicultural Children’s Book Day!  To celebrate, I am reviewing Dawson’s Pajama Drama by Constance Ogilvie.  Every morning when Dawson wakes up, his pajamas are missing. He has many excuses as to where his pajamas go, but the truth will make young readers chuckle.  The cute rhyming text will make this a fun book to read aloud with any child. Thank you to the author for sharing this book with me. #ReadYourWorld
Multicultural Children’s Book Day 2019 (1/25/19) is in its 6th year and was founded by Valarie Budayr from Jump Into A Book and Mia Wenjen from PragmaticMom. Our mission is to raise awareness of the ongoing need to include kids’ books that celebrate diversity in homes and school bookshelves while also working diligently to get more of these types of books into the hands of young readers, parents and educators.
