review 1: The rhythm and rhyme in Jammy Dance accurately reflect the joy and rhythm a brother and sister experience as they prepare for bed. The children, with the aid of their mother and father, dance through a bed time routine that includes bath time, pajamas, toothbrushes and a bed time story. Children will enjoy the simple and colorful illustrations of the two children and their loving mother and father. Children will also identify with the bed time routine. The fun rhymes and dancing help children understand the simple joy of the bed time routine. The book would make a great bed time story. It also provides a wide variety of vocabulary related to dancing and movement for children to explore with an older reader.
review 2: Bedtime is dance time for this brother and ... moresister. Once baths are over they are ready to MOVE! "Hold my hand: take a chance. Jump into the Jammy Dance! Bow to brother. Bow to Sis. Swing your partner just like this." Mom and dad get in on the act and take a turn around the room but then the rhythm begins to slow down and the little dancers are tucked into bed and fall asleep. This is an enjoyable story that could get little dancing feet moving so it may work better as a pre-bedtime read aloud rather than one read just before lights out. less
