The Going-To-Bed Book by Little Simon

Cute!

Cute bedtime book! My child liked it, but we lost it while traveling already :( I'll have to pick up another copy sometime.

Part of our collection

We like most of Sandra Boynton's books. This, is not my favourite but we were looking for bedtime books so this one works well for that. I just hope the baby outgrows it before I have to explain why they go exercise AFTER they get ready for bed - LOL

The Going To Bed Book

Beautiful! An instant hit with my 9 month old grandson, who loves books but is already selective. Simply written, illustrations perfect and capture the story. Loved it.

The book I remember most from my childhood

There is something about this book that has stuck with me for years. I'm almost 30 years old, and still the words "to take a bath in one big tub with soap all over-scrub, scrub, scrub!" are as clear to me as they were when I was about five years old. This is just a wonderfully simple and fun book that I imagine most kids would want to read every single night before bedtime like I did. Clearly the benefits of storybook time with kids works! I highly recommend!

Simple and colorful

Lately, I've been looking for bedtime stories. It was a pleasant surprise to find another fun book to read. The language flows so nicely. The sun has set not long ago, now everybody goes below... ...the moon is high the sea is deep, they rock and rock and rock to sleep... I'm getting sleepy already.

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.
They rock
and rock
and rock
to sleep.
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
