Great for train lovers!
My 3 year old son LOVES trains so we were excited to find a new train book for our bedtime routine. It's a fun story with silly pictures. The train passes through many interesting places on it's way to bedtime. My son enjoys pointing out all the oddities in the illustrations--mostly to draw out the story!

best book
I would give this book five stars. It is one of the best books I've ever read and I could not put it down. The story was captivating and it made you feel like you were another character watching this story unfold. You are so in touch with the characters emotions that certian points in the book don't really hit you until you see how she is hit by it. Over all this is my favorite book and I ...

Extraordinary
Just wanted to chime in my two cents on "Fortune-Teller"--I've lived and travelled in Asia for the last 3 years, and Terzani's book is the only travel writing I've read that opened my eyes to ways of thinking outside the norm, the mundane, the Lonely Planet view of the world. Extremely worth seeking out. Naturally, this leads me to wanting to read "Goodnight Mister Lenin", if it can be ...

Wonderful!
My 14-month old son runs to the bookshelf, grabs this book, and thrusts it in our direction to read to him over and over again - he just can't get enough of it! My husband and I have each read it to him dozens of times and happily we aren't bored of it either; the illustrations are excellent, and the story is creative and funny. I highly recommend this book.

It's a Must Read!
Berkeley Breathed is one of the best autor's one could come by. She has great enthusiasm and vision; it's like you're inside the story. "Goodnight Opus" has a great array of language for readers of all ages and abilities.

A classic
This book is an excellent read, not only for kids who can relate to the death of a grandparent or a loved one, but for all children who are just starting to learn about death. It's a great way to introduce the topic. I had it as a kid, and recently bought a new copy. It is one of my most beloved childhood books. The illustrations are great, too--I don't know how kids would feel about them today, ...

Fantastic!
I own this book, as well as others in the series. They are just great! My mom owns a Westie, perfectly named Duffy(he got the name before we new about the books), and the illustrator captures the essence of the Westie. Every picture is perfectly drawn to show the character of a Westie. I love the author as well. I have been a teacher and have always read Ms. Wells' books to my students and the ...

don't let the kids have it!
I bought two copies a long time ago. One I gave to my cousin for her young daughter and it got shreaded. The other copy I still have and it is signed by the author herself. I worked with Ms. Norris for a short while in Knoxville Tennessee. Ms. Norris also had another no dialogue children's book available at that time that was about a dog.

A book for any little dinosaur fan
My three year old has been into dinosaurs for a year and is still going strong. He received this for his third birthday and it quickly became his favorite bedtime story. We always end with a kiss and he roars a goodnight. Lol. I like how the dinosaurs are named in the pictures because it not only teaches bedtime manners, but also dinosaur identification. Believe it or not, the boy can name ...

Love this book!
This is the kind of book that even parents will want to read again and again. Moms and dads will be able to relate to the bedtime struggles, and kids will see themselves in the whiny little dragons (and so will their parents). This book makes me smile every time, even if I am reading it for the hundredth time!

A hilarious story
I wasn't expecting this book to be as good as it is, but it's really funny. I love it just as much as my toddler. This is a book I'll get more of for gifts.

Great Book
My 14 month-old daughter absolutely loves this book. We read this book and put the baby animals to bed every night as part of her nighttime routine and it's been great fun. We do it two or three times a night! I can't recommend it enough.

Lovely and Amazing
This is an unusual and deeply beautiful collection. The language is fantastic, and all the stories are rollicking and resonant. The story "Ellen's book is a lesson in how to write a perfect, poignant short story. "Goodnight, Nobody" was my book club's favorite last year--don't miss it!

From age 6 to 16, I still love this tape
At age 6, this tape was purchased for me, and I loved it. Now 10 years later, I still listen to, and love it. I suffer from slight insomnia, and the only thing that helps me sleep is not any medication, but this tape. Even at age 16, I love the childish, but safe images that are created in this tape; I give it 5 stars, hands down.

Wonderful story!
This is one of our favorite books. My 2 and 3 year old love the various birds and noises they make (great learning tool), the repetition makes it easy to remember. The story is lots of fun. The kids get a big kick out of the ending too! After a few reads, we can basically recite the book and often re-tell the story to ourselves while driving in the car. I would highly recommend this book for ...

Jessica's Favorite
My daughter, Jessica, is now almost 12 years old. But, when she was just the first sparkle in my eye we were given this book. Her very first. Even then, she would have me read it to her over and over again, all the while she was finding the hidden mouse. I believe for sentimental reasons, it is still her most favorite book. Only now, she enjoys reading to me (and I find the mouse).

Powerful words, powerful book!
Get out a new hanky or get the tissue box ready. You'll need it! In Kiss Me Good Night the editors compiled stories from 47 women who recall their mother's death (if they remember) or how they feel now. The women, through prose or poetry, tell about their mothers and how certain sounds, smells, tastes and things like seeing a purse (like their mother had) trigger strong emotions of loss and ...

ABSOLUTELY PEE-YOUR-PANTS FUNNY
"Goodnight, Desdemona (Good Morning, Juliet)" is the funniest play I have ever read or seen. I am currently playing Constance in a high school production of the play, and the more we go along, the more we discover about the play. Upon first reading, it is an absolutely hilarious twist of Shakespeare's "Othello" and "Romeo and Juliet." But reading it a second, and even a third time will reveal ...

Easy and Fun
This terrific book says alot with few words. The watercolor pictures are beautiful, and the text is carefully written. We adore the picture of the wolf carrying a 100 pound cake to fatten up the chicken before he eats her. The ending is so sweet it leaves you feeling like life is great. I consider this one of my favorite read alouds.
