Not just a bedtime book, although it is one of the best around. In addition, each pair of facing pages is like a short, short story itself. I have used this book when tutoring dyslexic children. The alliterative rhymes on every pair of facing pages provides ample opportunity for young readers to practice their skills. This highly imaginative work is hilarious for the adult as well, making reading this book aloud a joy(the only way to really get the rhyme and humor), even when a child wants the book read over and over numerous times. Excellent book for children age five through adulthood.
I have at least 3 yawns in the first two pages and my little one is normally out before the middle of the book.
I've been reading this to my daughter every night for the past few nights, and she's always asleep by the end of it. It's fun to read, and the illustrations are wonderful. Another great Seuss classic.
Seuss style.I. Seuss.I will mention this title and frequently I am met by blank stares.Dr. I am amazed that more people do not know this classic book by Dr. Love. Seuss's Sleep Book is a wonderful book that allows adults to yawn repeatedly throughout the reading and it will cause youngsters to become sleepy. Of course, one side effect is that the adult will also become sleepy from yawning while reading it.The creatures are wonderfully strange and humorous in the classic Dr. This. Book.I frequently give it as a gift to friends with small children.
This was one of my favorite books as a child, and now I'm buying it for a friend's young one. I had to read it one more time before I gave it away, and it was as wonderful as I remembered.
