review:
'Goodnight, Mr. Clutterbuck' by Mauri Kunnas with translation by Jill Timbers is a story about a poor creature who can't understand why he is so tired during the day, but the reader will know why.

Every night, Mr. Clutterbuck has a routine so that he could get a good night's sleep. It includes brushing his teeth, drinking a glass of warm milk, and tucking his guinea pig Gus in for the night. But every night, Mr. Clutterbuck is the busiest, noisiest sleepwalker in his town. Poor Gus has his hands full keeping Mr. Clutterbuck safe. Along the way, he manages to solve mysteries in his town, but what about all those missing spoons?

It's a really funny story which is only funnier with the great illustrations. I feel so bad for little Gus who is fully aware of all the close calls that Mr. Clutterbuck gets in to. I think this would be fa fun book to read aloud with kids.

I received a review copy of this ebook from Elsewhere Editions, Archipelago, and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this ebook.
