An all-too-frequent occurrence in early childhood is humorously presented when Daddy tries to get little Susie to take her nap. To every blandishment and ploy - a walk, exercise, stories, cuddling - Susie's refrain is 'no nap'. When mom finally return home, the sleeping, exhausted one is Daddy. Susie's determined, unrelenting expression and Daddy's patient but ever more drooping form are amusingly characterised in Susan Meddaugh's scratchy but realistic drawings. Fun to read aloud. - The Horn Book Magazine
