This is the perfect go to bed quick with a story book I have found. My little one, who is 4, loves getting to choose the tab for the story and goes to bed much more willingly with a story (even if it is super quick)! We usually read two so she feels extra special. It's not the length that counts, it's the snuggle. |

Our 8-month-old hears the delightful short stories in Snoozers each night as part of his bedtime routine. The book always holds his attention and interest. One of the stories calls for a second voice to help tell it. We've had lots of fun experimenting with this second voice. While one of us reads to our son, the other is tidying up or putting away laundry in his room or the neighboring room. As long as that person is within earshot as the story is being told, they chime in at all the right times. Some nights the voice is unexpectedly boisterous; other nights it's sweet and subtle. One never knows what to expect! |

These very brief stories are perfect for my son, who has problems with attention at bedtime. He can skip around the book and have two or three brief stories instead of trying to keep still through one long one. Boynton stories are always a delight, and these are no exception! |

I'm really surprised by some of the poor opinions some have of this. My 23-month-old loves this book. She wants to hear "I'm Not Tired" again and again and again. The Snoozers and Silly Lullaby are both in the book/CD Philadelphia Chickens, which is the only reason I give this a 4 - while it's fun to know the tunes that go to those stories, it would have been better to give those two songs more illustrations in their own books. But in general, "I'm Not Tired" and the Pajamas story are well worth it to this mom. |

These short, short, wonderful rhymes are almost too much fun for bedtime reading. My son laughs and laughs and we have to read 2 or 3 of them 2 or 3 times each and then he giggles himself to sleep. Thank Heaven it's a book that I'm not nearly tired of, either - and we've almost worn out our copy. |

Our family are tremendous book lovers, with thousands of books in our collection, and our daughter's collection alone has hundreds upon hundreds of books. But the book she loves the most and without a doubt has gotten the most use of is snoozers. We purchased this book when our daughter was 2, and three years later we're still reading it to her at bedtime every night. We've tried to add other stories to the bedtime ritual, but she keeps requesting this one. And you know what? We don't mind a bit! The stories are fun, the pictures are adorable, and it's always been giggles and a quick, no fuss, trip to sleep for our daughter. To keep our own adult sanity for this long, we've been reading the stories at different tempos and with really silly voices. Now that she's about to turn 6, we're not sure how much longer this will continue... but it may very well become a special bedtime ritual she will want to hold onto throughout her childhood. (There's no sign of it gathering dust on the bookshelf anytime soon.) No doubt about it, this book is a hit - It would be a bargain at twice the price! |

My 13month old wants me to read the book to him all the time - it's easy for him to turn the pages (a real plus, since he can also look at it by himself), because it is designed like a file-folder. I love the stories and knew them by heart right away. The pictures are colorful and it's easy to point and label the different animals. We both really love it and I recommend it to every parent. |

Boynton is always fresh and original. Her illustrations are cute and the animal characters are very expressive, for cartoons. The stories are each worth a smile, but the "Silly Song" (music included) on the last page is worth the price alone. (Sneakers in the freezer? An owl that whispers "moo"?) I think it's appropriate for ages higher than the typical "board book" crowd - my six year old is learning to play the silly song on the piano, and she often comes into the bedroom of her younger sister when I am reading it to her. Our whole family enjoys this book. |

I found this book in an airport on a week long trip my son was determined to spend awake, or that's how it seemed at bedtime. This book did the trick to get him to sleep without a fuss-both that night, and every "I'm not tired" night since then. Both the stories and the format are perfect for giving the little ones the illusion of control-they choose which stories to read from the "table of contents" tabs on the side, and in which order. The number of stories is just right to make kids feel like they've gotten you to keep reading a long time, even though the entire book only takes minutes to finish. Bravo to Boynton! |

This is not just a favorite at bedtime, but all day long. My 13-month-old will bring it to me during the day and "throws" it at me until I read it. He especially loves the "snore" page -making the noises along with me. |
