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

BOYNTONS' BOOKS BOUNCE! July 1, 2008
Sandra Boynton's books are the PERFECT GIFT for baby showers....they are wonderfully rhythmic to read and babies love these! I always purchase these little board books for new parents who generally get all kinds of baby clothes etc. for showers but rarely get books to start a baby libary. You just can't go wrong with any of the books by Sandra Boynton, they beg to be read aloud!
Our family LOVES this book! June 23, 2008
This was our first Sandra Boynton book and one of our favorites. It's usually in our stack of bedtime books and our son often wants to read it more than once. It's so fun to read. Our whole family highly recommends it!
Our favorite bed time book! June 18, 2008
We love this book (well all of her books!) and this one has been many a gift for friends and family! We read it every night and our older son can quote it word for word now!
Great Book for toddlers June 15, 2008
I love the Sandra Boynton books. This one is one of my favorites along with Pajama Time, Birthday Monsters, and the Belly Button one. Kids can turn the thicker pages and they always love the drawings and rhymes.
 Not the best. June 4, 2008

This book is okay, but it doesn't seem to draw my 2-year-old's attention very much. The storyline is interesting to him, but I believe it's the pictures that are not too appealing to a younger child, as they're more like a drawing rather than distinct separate animals, etc. that he can clearly see.
I would buy something else :(
