I sent a copy of this book to my newborn niece. In it I wrote a note: "Please make sure you have your mom and dad read this to you as soon as possible. It contains many helpful hints for you to avoid going to bed on time. Use them wisely." My brother and my sister-in-law are probably going to kill me, but I don't care. If this book does not somehow wind up in bedtime literature history (like "Goodnight Moon"), it will be a travesty. The combination of lilting word rhythms and sweet illustrations will charm and soothe any restless child, and a few adults I can think of as well. Highly recommended.
What a great book!

This is such a wonderful book to read to a child before bed. Lots of amazing drawings and a cute story. Even if you are not a big fan of Dog Eat Doug (you should be though...very funny), it's a cute and colorful book for any infant and young child. I was so impressed with it I picked up another copy for my office waiting room, so parents will have a good book to read to their children while they wait. The author/artist does a wonderful job...knew his work in college (go 'Saders!) and I think he'll continue to produce some amazing comics and children's books.
Love it
