Little Critter Sleeps Over by Mercer Mayer

If you are looking for a book that both you and your child will enjoy Little Critter is the answer. Your probably thinking that I'm bias and I am, I love Little Critter books. In this book Little Critter is going over to a rich friends house for a sleep over. I would be so exhausted after all the activities they do, swimming, playing with the train set, volleyball, crochet, and hide and seek. Then they eat dinner. It is a fancy dinner where the napkins are shaped like hats, so Little Critter puts it on his head. After dinner they watch a little tv and then off to sleep. Little Critter gets scared but hugs his teddy bear and pretends he's at home. The next day they play in the hose with Froo Froo, a dog. Froo Froo gets muddy and runs into the house. Little Critter and his friend have to stop Froo Froo from getting the house dirty and take off after her. The house is a mess when they finally catch her. After the Froo Froo incident it's time for Little Critter to go home. I'm sure he wanted to stay longer but his friends mom appeared to be frazzled by him.
