And when it comes to silly books, Sandra Boynton is the undisputed queen. In <I>The Going to Bed Book</I>, 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. <blockquote> The moon is high. The sea is deep. <br> They rock <br> and rock <br> and rock <br> to sleep. <br> </blockquote> 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 (<I>Moo, Baa, La La La!</I>, <I>But Not the Hippopotamus</I>, and others) will surely remain a favorite.
