Rating:  Summary: Our toddler loves it! Review: At 13 months old, our little girl loves "Snoozers." For the past two weeks, she searches and finds it among the dozens of books on her bookshelf, and pulls it out for us every night. She won't even let me read the first few -- she turns directly to the last one, and wants to hear the animals snore!
Rating:  Summary: very cute Review: Cute book for bed that is nice and fast for those children that don't SIT for books!!!
Rating:  Summary: Sense of humor needed to get this book Review: I bought this book for my baby's first birthday, but it is my 6 year old and 4 year old who LOVE it. They think it is hilarious. They love to recite the stories. The book definately grows on you.
Rating:  Summary: A lifesaver at bedtime Review: I found this book in an airport on a week long trip my son was determined to spend awake, or that's how it seemed at bedtime. This book did the trick to get him to sleep without a fuss--both that night, and every "I'm not tired" night since then. Both the stories and the format are perfect for giving the little ones the illusion of control--they choose which stories to read from the "table of contents" tabs on the side, and in which order. The number of stories is just right to make kids feel like they've gotten you to keep reading a long time, even though the entire book only takes minutes to finish. Bravo to Boynton!
Rating:  Summary: A Big Hit with your littlest snoozer Review: I love this book, and it's a good thing because I read it EVERY night!! Boynton's humor is infectious and zany. It's just the right length to allow my six month old daughter to relax in her crib before falling asleep. It's easy to memorize (for 'reading' in the dark), and the illustrations are so colorful for enjoying all day long. So buy the book and send YOUR zoodles to sleep!
Rating:  Summary: Not the best (or the worst) of Boynton Review: I'm a huge Boynton fan. Some of her childrens' books are pure magic and I still smile when I read them again and again (such as Barnyard Dance, Oh My Oh My Oh Dinosaur and the Going to Bed Book). This one just didn't do anything for me. I love her silliness and whimsy but the total nonsense lullaby at the end was the worst. If it didn't cost so much to send it back, I would.It also didn't hold my girls attention at all. Oh well... I'll keep trying her other books. There's bound to be more gems out there.
Rating:  Summary: A great bed time book Review: My son wants me to read him this book every night! He LOVES it. He used to ask for a bunch of different stories every night. Thanks to this book, we have seven different short stories all in one book! THANK YOU Ms. Boynton!!
Rating:  Summary: Hands down the MOST read book in our house! Review: Our family are tremendous book lovers, with thousands of books in our collection, and our daughter's collection alone has hundreds upon hundreds of books. But the book she loves the most and without a doubt has gotten the MOST use of is SNOOZERS. We purchased this book when our daughter was 2, and three years later we're STILL reading it to her at bedtime EVERY night. We've tried to add other stories to the bedtime ritual, but she keeps requesting this one. And you know what? We don't mind a bit! The stories are fun, the pictures are adorable, and it's always been giggles and a quick, no fuss, trip to sleep for our daughter. To keep our own adult sanity for this long, we've been reading the stories at different tempos and with really silly voices. Now that she's about to turn 6, we're not sure how much longer this will continue...but it may very well become a special bedtime ritual she will want to hold onto throughout her childhood. (There's no signs of it gathering dust on the bookshelf anytime soon.) No doubt about it, this book is a hit -- It would be a bargain at twice the price!
Rating:  Summary: pleasant bedtime fluff Review: Seven nonsense rhymes with cute illustrations of animals in pajamas are entertainng nighttime fare. Some of the rhymes do seem forced but the colored tabs are a great idea and the tone is sweet.
Rating:  Summary: Great for Bedtime! Review: These short, short, wonderful rhymes are almost too much fun for bedtime reading. My son laughs and laughs and we have to read 2 or 3 of them 2 or 3 times each and then he giggles himself to sleep. Thank Heaven it's a book that I'm not nearly tired of, either - and we've almost worn out our copy.
