Great reading for babies ( and their parents)

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on August 19, 2017

As a former Professor of Children's Literature now retired, I promised my Great Grandchildren at birth, that I would provide them each with 10 age and interest appropriate books each year. The Napping House was one of 20 starter board books for my two newest Greats! I loved it as a Professor and hope my babies will enjoy it as well.

Damaged

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on April 2, 2022

Bought the book new for a baby shower, the pages were bent, scratched, sticky and frayed. I’ve requested a replacement and am hopeful.

The story itself is so cute and fun so my review is not about the story itself, but the condition of the books condition.

Scared my two year old

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on January 21, 2014

I thought the book was lovely. But the expressions on the animals' faces after the flea bite really upset my two year old. He cried hard for three minutes -- his first ever scare from a book (and we read about 10 books/day). They are a bit scary... the animals look very distressed.

Don't waste your money

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on September 3, 2015

Stupid book. Story is lame and the editing is terrible. It's doesn't flow, it's just a tongue twister that is not even silly cute. No moral, no point, just a lame story.

Cute illustrations

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on June 15, 2014

This book had very cute illustrations but it was too similar to so many other books. If it weren't for the pictures I probably would have returned it. The story didn't keep any of my children listening and they usually love books.

"New" not necessarily a true statement when searching for books!

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on July 31, 2009

I ordered this book with the impression that it was "New". When it arrived, the paper cover was torn on the corners and the cover as well as pages in the book looked sun faded. It smelled as though it had been sitting in a attic for years. Had this been a book just for my own kids I would have been able to look past the fading of the pages but it was a gift for my niece which I felt horrible about giving to her. It just looked cheap and I suppose I should have just bought it brand new at a store.

Great book, but didn't realise...

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on January 4, 2007

It's a lovely, beautiful book. I love Audrey and Don Wood, and do check out their other children's books. The illustrations are lovely and the writing is sweet and perfect for kids.

BUT.

Perhaps I misread, but I didn't realise that this specific copy was one of those small, cardboard, toddler's copies. I thought I was getting a pretty hardbacked copy instead, and thus was disappointed when the book arrived.

Just make sure you know which book you're getting.
