Book Reviews of The Going to Bed Book (Boynton)
Book Review: A bedtime essential!
Summary: 5 Stars
Its hard to believe in one so young,but my 6-month old loves this book.We have read it almost every night since he was a few weeks old.When I feed him his bottle before bed,he sometimes zones out but,the minute he sees this book,he reaches for it and often laughs.Of course,maybe he'd do the same with any night time read.....but I like to think he loves this as much as I do!I actually don't really need the book any more,as I know the story off by heart,but the illustrations are so much fun too.The rhyming and the cadence are just so much fun to listen to.I'm checking out other Boynton books and can't wait until he can say the words too.
Summary of The Going to Bed Book (Boynton)
No child likes going to bed and as every parent knows, their little treasures will try and delay it for as long as possible! Discover all the antics children get up to before going to bed, in this hilarious board book, written and illustrated in Boynton's own unique humourous style. The perfect way to read kids to sleep!For a little one who is reluctant to go to bed, sometimes a silly book is just the ticket. And when it comes to silly books, Sandra Boynton is the undisputed queen. In The Going to Bed Book, an ark full of animals watches the sun go down and then prepares for bed. They take a bath ("in one big tub"), find pajamas, brush their teeth, do exercises up on deck (imagine an elephant jumping rope, a moose lifting weights, and a pig doing handstands), and finally say good night.
The moon is high. The sea is deep.Boynton's inimitable animal characters have graced the pages of scads of picture books over the years. She has an extraordinary knack for knowing what appeals to small children: simple rhymes, goofy animals in goofy settings, and sweet, comforting stories. This book, along with her many other board-book titles (Moo, Baa, La La La!, But Not the Hippopotamus, and others) will surely remain a favorite. (Baby to preschool) --Emilie Coulter
