This is a board back with fun colored tabs for each story, there are seven stories and seven tabs. Each 'story' takes up two pages and has illustrations around the text. The stories are more like short poems than actually bed time stories, but they all revolve around bed time related activities, like putting on pjs or yawning. It's a cute book altogether. The first page is a table of contents with the listing of all the story names in bold colors corresponding with a tab on the side, this way a child can easily pick out his or her favorite story to be read. The pages are very glossy and smooth and the illustrations funny, at the end is a picture of the adult asleep in the chair with the child awake on his lap. It's a pretty cute book definitely made with it's audience (little children) in mind. ( )

This is a 16 page board book with seven stories in it. Two of the pages are the table of contents.

The stories are, of course, short. In fact, they are "short short", as advertized!

If your kid has moved past board books and is now well into the world of long books like Green Eggs and Ham or, dare I say it, War and Peace, this one might be a little *too* short short for him or her.

If your kid is in the target age for these books, baby or toddler, then it should be just long enough to hold his or her attention until beddybye.

The stories are typically funny, in Boynton's style. We especially like "I'm Not Tired" around here, and the silly lullaby at the end! ( )

This is a creative approach to bedtime board books, with seven short rhyming stories with cute animal pictures. The board pages are tabbed, so children who don't read yet can point to the one they want to hear, or can turn the pages to their favourite. The stories are funny, particularly for the parents, and the silly lullaby at the end was a huge hit with our three kids. These are good for toddlers and preschoolers. "Snoozers" and "Silly Lullaby" have been recorded as songs in Boynton's 2002 "Philadelphia Chickens" book and CD set. ( )
