My all-time favorite bedtime book! Some of the poems can cite famous authorship, all are helpful in getting kids prepared for bedtime. Fantastic.

I bought this book years ago (in the 80’s)and it was a favorite bedtime read. It’s a treasure. We still have it.

I was sad to see that Wynken, Blynken, and Nod was not in here:( I know it is long, but an abridged version, or just one stanza would have been lovely to round out this book.

A great book for parents and kids! Sweet memories for me as a Mom.

This was my absolute favorite book as a child. I would make up tunes to sing the poems to. I hope to share this book with my own children.
