Like its predecessors, Sleepy Time Olie pairs a bouncy tale told in rhyme with bright, colorful artwork. Children who enjoy stories about robots will undoubtedly take to this entire series, which incorporates picture-books, board-books, and a television show adaptation. These aren't my favorites, of author/artist William Joyce's books - that honor goes to The Fantastic Flying Books of Mr. Morris Lessmore and the Guardians of Childhood series - but they are engaging, and will certainly keep young science-fiction lovers entertained.
