I give this at almost every baby shower I go to. The CD adds so much, and Audrey Wood has captured the rainy nap day perfectly.
Great book, great CD, great price = a GREAT present |

| The Napping House: Book and Musical CD by Harcourt Children's Books Delightful |
| I am a big fan of Audry and Don Wood. Their books are simply delightful. |
| The Napping House: Book and Musical CD by Harcourt Children's Books A Beautiful Book |
| I have this book in hardback, but wanted to give it to a family with young children. The colors and illustrations are just as clear as the hardback, but the book will hold up well when handled by the little ones! |
| The Napping House: Book and Musical CD by Harcourt Children's Books Get the Large Board book of this |
| The pictures in this are beautiful. However, I bought just the regular board book version of this, and you just can't appreciate the pictures enough. Try and get the large board book version if possible. The other book "Piggies" by Audrey and Don Wood is excellent in the large board book version as well. My 2 1/2 yr old girl loves both books. |

There is a house,
a napping house,
where everyone is sleeping. "Everyone," in this case is a snoring granny, a dreaming child, a dozing dog, a snoozing cat, a slumbering mouse... and a wakeful flea! Uh-oh. Looks like the napping house won't be napping for long. With their very own brand of humor, Audrey Wood and Don Wood create an appealing bedtime book compatible with Margaret Wise Brown's classic Goodnight Moon. This small, square board book, with its rhythmic, repetitive text and witty pictures in shades of ever-brightening blues and greens (as the night turns to day), is sure to be a winner with preschool insomniacs. The sleepy household congregates on Granny's bed, slowly building a very relaxed pile of bodies in shifting positions. Young readers will enjoy tracking the critters as they make their way, one by one, to the bed--and then guessing what will happen when the wakeful flea joins the heap. Be sure to look for this author-illustrator team's other hilarious collaborative efforts, including Piggies and Silly Sally. (Baby to preschool) --Emilie Coulter |
