From the publisher

Meet the plucky toddler Edgar the Raven! He’s mischievous, disobedient, and contrary. Dinnertime, cleanup-time, and bedtime are all met with one word: NEVERMORE! But as the evening winds to a close, Edgar’s mom knows just what to do to get her son into bed–a bedtime story. Jennifer Adam’s charming story gives a sly wink to Edgar Allan Poe’s The Raven, and will have little literature lovers saying, “MORE! MORE!” Jennifer Adams lives in Salt Lake City Ron Stucki lives in Salt Lake City
