Rating:  Summary: Magical, Hypnotic Story Review: I received this book as a gift well before my first child was born. Of course, I had heard of it, but after reading through it a few times, I became enthralled by the book's magical and hypnotic rythms. The spare choice of words, the repitition, the soothing rhymes and the mysterious house, illuminated in the darkness, reveal something different in every reading. You can read it to your baby to get her ready for sleep, to your one-year old for the sound of the words, to your 2 year old for the rhymes--one of the books that you will put in your treasure box and save forever.
Rating:  Summary: My 9 month old demands this book!! Among his favorites... Review: I have been reading to my son since he was a newborn and like other viewers it wasn't obvious to me why he would like this book. He is now 9 months and grins like crazy when he sees the first page and protests if i do not reread the book to him. Saying goodnight to multiple objects through a rhyme is soothing while a brightly lit colorful room grows dimmer and dimmer.Also the bright pages are interlaced with back and white pages with simpler pictures which works well in terms of keeping the pace right and not over stimulating him as a bedtime story. I did a lot of research in picking his first board bks and he thoroughly enjoys all of them. Highly Recommended! 1. Goodnight Moon (bed time) 2. The Big Red Barn (bed time) 3. The Very Hungry Caterpillar 4. The Runaway Bunny 5. Pat the Bunny (not exactly a board book)
Rating:  Summary: You will take a part of this with you forever Review: Remember the simplicity of childhood? That simplicity is contained within the binding of this book. This was and probably still is my favorite book. I wish that I was but a child again, to be able to enjoy and bask in the simplicity. This book is remarkable, so sweet & important. I loved when my mother read it to me, and I cannot wait to be able to read and instill the same love and simplicity to my children. Purchase this book, and you will not be disapointed.
Rating:  Summary: Classic bedtime story! Review: I read this story to my 3 smallest story every night before they went to bed for years. They all loved it and still remember me reading it to them. Wonderful memories for myself and my children. You can't go wrong with this one!
Rating:  Summary: A must-have book Review: This is one of the few books my 14-month old will want to read again and again. It grows with kids. At first they love looking at all the bright colors on every page. Later you will be able to ask them "where is the kittens?" or "where is the red balloon?" get it.
Rating:  Summary: Perfect Nighttime Story Review: I've been reading this book to my daughter for 2 years and it's wonderful. The psychological effect of this book is so great that I cannot hardly stay awake myself. I'm yawning right now writing this review. Great book!
Rating:  Summary: A must have for any child Review: We read this book at least twice a night before my daughter goes to bed. It's just wonderful.
Rating:  Summary: It's magic! Review: I wasn't surprised when the kid wanted to hear the book over & over. I wasn't surprised that I ended up memorizing the text. I WAS surprised, that on a particularly fussy car ride, with no book in sight, when I started quoting the thing from desparation, the kid fell asleep. The effect has been repeated, though not quite as dramatic every time."As effective as codine, but not narcotic" And I liked looking for the mouse.
