I'm Not Millie!

Mark Pett

A hilarious and relatable read-aloud about a case of mistaken identity at bedtime.

Where's Millie?! Every time a new nighttime task pops up, there's an animal in her place!

It's time for Millie to eat her green beans. But Millie's not here--that's a hippo in her seat! Fine, if Millie won't eat her vegetables, it's time for a bath. No . . . Millie . . . here . . . just . . . a . . . tortoise . . .

This fun, spare read-aloud is perfect for any kid who has ever tried to get out of something, and for any parent who has tried to get them back in.
