Poetry. "Kate Lynn Hibbard's SLEEPING UPSIDE DOWN is a beautiful book of poetry, composed in well-crafted and pleasing cadences, sharing a vision of sexuality extraordinary for both the strong storytelling it inspires, and for a tender intimacy that pervades each strophe like another warm music. In poem after poem, it is a former norm of sexual orientation that is consciously backgrounded--a past, "straight" life fraught with the unresolved and repressed--and a new, happy and mature lifecelebrated and patiently chronicled in its stead. It is then that the plain sweetness of the everyday returns--planting peas for a summer garden, cooking a cranberry chutney, sleeping through a blizzard in late March--and all of these shared in the erotics of a woman-to-woman lovingness. What a debut. It was a gift to have read this wonderful book."--Garrett Hongo
"Offers a young reader a glimpse of childhood during the 1950s and brings the older reader down memory lane. These stories are told with a fresh perspective. Sometimes they are sad, as death is sad, or scary, as strange noises and cellars can be scary, but always they are enjoyable, often fun, and offer a deeper awareness of a young girl's kaleidoscopic view of her world."-- From reviews.
Amigo, a black retriever whose name means "friend" in Spanish, loves having someone rub his tummy and sleeping with his favorite stuffed bear as a pillow. As he drifts off to sleep, he gives a deep sigh and rolls upside down. When he's awake, the dog chases all animals--actually, anything with four legs. His owners don't give him many chances to chase things, so he dreams about them. The problem is he always winds up in trouble. By the story's end, it is hoped that he has learned that chasing animals is not a good idea. Notice Amigo's favorite bear doing something in each of the illustrations. He may be hidden or not! Is the bear real or not? It's up to you to find out.

The tales are grouped into themed sections with a detailed subject index.
