The Going to Bed Book

Boynton, S. (2000). The Going to Bed Book. Little Simon Place.

Format: Board Book
Age: 1+ 

This fun board book tells the tale of animals who are on a boat. They need to get ready for bed so they all take a bath, brush their teeth, hang their towels,exercise, and go to sleep. This would make a great bedtime story for any child in the 0-5 age group. The pages have bright background colors like other Sandra Boynton books and her animal characters that have been featured in many of her texts. It is relatable by children as most of them have to do the same things before bed, and the illustrations might even be funny to them. It's funny to see all of the animals in one bath tub or shoved in one room brushing their teeth around one sink. This is a wonderful bedtime story for all.
