Book Description Publication Date: May 5, 2005 | Age Level: 3 and up | Grade Level: P and up | Series: Llama Llama Llama, Llama red pajama waiting, waiting for his mama. Mama isn't coming yet. Baby Llama starts to fret. In this infectious rhyming read-aloud, Baby Llama turns bedtime into an all-out llama drama! Tucked into bed by his mama, Baby Llama immediately starts worrying when she goes downstairs, and his soft whimpers turn to hollers when she doesn't come right back. But just in time, Mama returns to set things right. Children will relate to Baby Llama's need for comfort, as much as parents will appreciate Mama Llama's reassuring message.

Did not like the temper tantrum/terror of the dark in this book, but it is a well written and illustrated book

Reviewed in the United States on March 10, 2018

Verified Purchase

This book is very well illustrated and well written. However, there are two things that I didn’t like about the book. The baby llama throws a temper tantrum and and the entire book is about his impatience with his mama. Then there is a page or two of him suddenly getting really scared of the dark and the illustrations may be a little unsettling for some young readers. The colors, big eyes, and one page of him yelling at the top of his lungs in terror for his mama. It just feels weird whenever I read it to my 2 year old. However, this is just my opinion and I know many parents out there have no problem with it. Just wanted to share in case there is another parent out there that might appreciate this heads up.

Wish I’d read the reviews

Reviewed in the United States on January 4, 2020

This little book about a llama who repeatedly calls out for his mom in the night has somehow managed to disappoint two camps of parents: those in favor of teaching kids to “self-soothe” (because the mom finally comes into Llama’s room and responds to his “tantrum”), and attachment parents (because when she arrives, she chides him for his “Llama drama”). So if you are staunchly within either of these two camps, be advised you may also have some issues with this book.

Wildly overrated

Reviewed in the United States on March 2, 2019

Verified Purchase

This was purchased for my son based on the message and positive reviews. However I’m really not impressed and it doesn’t hold his interest at all. He typically enjoys books that rhyme, but this is far too repetitive. Quite frankly I find it rather annoying to read.

I won’t bother returning this but will instead be donating it to charity in the hopes that it ends up in the hands of someone who will enjoy it more than we do.

Llama Llama book arrived with a sticker saying it will be a Netflix Original Series, coming soon!

Reviewed in the United States on December 4, 2017

Verified Purchase

I've bought several copies of this book. The first one was for my DOG. He loves it and gets so relaxed by hearing the repetitive words of Llama Llama Red Pajama and he really likes it when I use my voice to be Llama's mama when she is racing up the stairs to find out why Little Llama is in such a tizzy. I make this sort of shrill yelling, like 'aahhhhhh, aahhhhhhh, aahhhhh,' to portray Llama's mama as she is running up the stairs and my American Bull Dog gets so happy and excited with that sound. HE REALLY DOES KNOW THE WHOLE BOOK. I've purchased other copies for friends. I realized the other night when I was feeling a little alone, and I was reading it by myself... that the book is really about comforting ME and so then I thought well if it can make a grown adult feel so loved, and a big mcfatty of a dog definitely feel SO LOVED, then I can only imagine how much it must fill the hearts of young children. I discovered LLRP books about a year ago and was so surprised to learn that it was first published many years ago. How had I not heard of this wonderful book and series of books by Anna Dewdney?! Then I learned that Mrs. Dewdney has passed away and my heart and mind is filled with so much sadness...I hope she knows how much love her books bring to so many. She had to be one of the most wonderful persons in the world to have created so much beauty and love. I got another copy today from Amazon to send to a special child I love. I also got the LLRP doll...for myself. Oh the places he will go with me! IMAGINE MY SURPRISE TO SEE A STICKER ON THE BOOK, LLRP, THAT SAID IT IS SOON TO BE A NETFLIX ORIGINAL SERIES! I can't wait; I'm so happy!

Depending upon the child, this cute, fun little bedtime book just might help toward closing those little eyes!

Reviewed in the United States on February 22, 2017

Most parents and grandparents will have a wry smile and nod of recognition while reading this book! Found this book on Amazon's book editors "100 Children's Books to Read in a Lifetime", which has been very handy in directing me toward books for our four grandchildren that had been published after my own children were young, and in reminding me of books I'd forgotten (need a new lock for that memory bank!) Anna Dewdney does a nice job of matching rhymes with her own whimsical illustrations in recreating the real-life scenes grandparents can recall with their own children (and young parents may be currently experiencing), in which Baby Llama (in his red pajamas) is read a bedtime story by Mama Llama, after which he's kissed goodnight and Mama heads downstairs to a sink full of dishes.

Baby starts feeling a bit apprehensive in the dark, and begins the usual childhood ploys for getting Mama back in the room... he needs a drink, calls out for her, but she's preoccupied with dishes and then a phone call. He begins wimpering, moaning, crying, hollering, stomping and pouting, jumping and shouting... wondering possibly "if Mama Llama's GONE?" Mama finally comes back in, a bit frustrated at first, then softening as she realizes he just needs a bit of reassurance... "Little Llama, don't you know, Mama Llama loves you so? Mama Llama's always near, even if she's not right here." After a double dose of kisses, he's then able to snuggle into his pillow and fall asleep.

Oh my goodness, did this book rattle my memory bank... though I can look back on it now and chuckle, I recall being five months into pregnancy with my second son, attempting to transition the first one (@ 2-1/2 years old) into a "big boy bed". The bottom of the baby bed had been lowered as far as it could be for quite a while, and we were nearing the time we'd have to raise it all the way back up! "Numero Uno", as I affectionately call him, was SO happy - we have a picture of him all tucked in on his first night, his trusty Glo Worm (a stuffed toy from the early '80s) at his side, great big grin on his face... until I walked out. Oh, the bedtime battle of wills between parent and child!

Sometimes all it takes is that extra bit of reassurance. That's how it was with my younger son, and with our oldest grandson. But as for my own oldest and our middle grandson (HIS son), all I could do - when "Numero Uno" told me about his struggles in trying to get his second son to stay in bed and go to sleep - was to give a wry smile and nod of recognition - and a big ol' wink! Cute book, fun to read, and certainly worth a try!

We love Llama Llama books in our house. Fun rhymes that are easy to act out and remember. The stories are easy for even the littlest kids to understand. Also, great for teaching emotions. Both our kids have autism and Anna Dewdney books have been a great resource for us.

Read Before You Buy

Reviewed in Canada on March 20, 2018

My 2.5 year old daughter loves the new Llama Llama Netflix show (and so do I), great stories with positive lessons behind them. I highly recommend it over Paw Patrol. With that in mind I purchased this book as it had great reviews and people repeatedly said "What a great bedtime book....". Wow...this is quite possibly the worst bedtime book I could read to my daughter at her age and current understanding of the world. It is equivalent to me watching "IT" right before bed.
Quick plot summary- Mama Llama (ML) puts Llama Llama (LL) to bed and goes down stairs. LL doesn't fall asleep and starts getting scared and crying. Each page flips between LL getting progressively more frightened and scared and ML doing chores down stairs and not hearing him cry. There is a climax to the story where LL is filled with terror that his mama is gone forever and the illustration reflects that fear very well (even if you child didn't understand the words yet). ML finally hears the crying and runs in (also with a look for terror) and soothes LL and gives him love till he calms down and falls asleep. Lesson of the story - "Being alone is scary and if you cry hard enough and long enough your parents will always come give you attention"

First night after reading this book as a bedtime story what do think happened.....
Second night same thing.....
Third night.....book is now hidden in a closet and will become a gift to a family we don't like.

We spent a lot of time and hard work sleep training our daughter and this story almost unraveled all of that. Its been a couple months and she still referred to "crying for Mama...Llama Llama...sleeping..etc" and she now cries for us more in the night (before the book was basically never).

So buy at your own risk but I recommend trying a different book in this series. "Llama Llama and Friends" was our second try and its great.

My then 2 year old son LOVED this book. He's 3 now and it's still his favourite. I enjoy reading anything to him that has a good rhyming rhythm, and this one has exactly that. Cute story.. Can totally relate to my child being just as dramatic and impatient! I recommend this book.

Beautiful Bed Time Story with Lovely Illustrations. 5 stars!

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on May 6, 2016

Verified Purchase

My son was introduced to this book at his play school. He was over the moon when he found that he had his very own book at home. He looks forward to bedtime with his favorite bedtime story. I think it also helped with transitioning him to his own room. We read it every night and he loves to pull the covers up like its illustrated in the book. He also says "sorry mommy" to me at the point the llama mama comes upstairs! There hasn't been a night my son hasn't smiled after reading llama llama and it has been nearly a month since we got it. As a parent I too enjoy reading it and the illustrations are very very cute, as is the rhythm of the story. Highly recommend!

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on March 18, 2016

I love this book and my son does too. It has a good message too - that even if a parent isn't right there with their child, they haven't forgotten them, and still love for them. It's just that they might have a thing or two to do on their own! I think it helps teach children that they are loved but not necessarily the center of the universe!
