What’s That Noise? by Michelle Edwards and Phyllis Root is about two brothers who sleep in the same room, and one plays a joke on the other and makes many noises to scare the other brother. The story is basically their conversation, Alex begging Ben to come sleep with him in his bed. I thought the dialogue could be a little confusing at times-I was a little unsure who said what on some of the pages. However, I did like the author’s use of onomatopoeia (the sounds made by the monster/brother), and know it would be a fun book to read allowed with a child, and have them make the noises with you.
