Delightful cumulative rhyme leads up to the consequences of piling too many sleepy people and animals in a cozy bed. Don Woods paintings endow Audreys familiar plot with beauty and newness, conveying atmosphere as well as illustrating the story.--Publishers Weekly

There is a house,
a napping house,
where everyone is sleeping. "Everyone," in this case is a snoring granny, a dreaming child, a dozing dog, a snoozing cat, a slumbering mouse... and a wakeful flea! Uh-oh. Looks like the napping house won't be napping for long. With their very own brand of humor, Audrey Wood and Don Wood create an appealing bedtime book compatible with Margaret Wise Brown's classic Goodnight Moon. This small, square board book, with its rhythmic, repetitive text and witty pictures in shades of ever-brightening blues and greens (as the night turns to day), is sure to be a winner with preschool insomniacs. The sleepy household congregates on Granny's bed, slowly building a very relaxed pile of bodies in shifting positions. Young readers will enjoy tracking the critters as they make their way, one by one, to the bed--and then guessing what will happen when the wakeful flea joins the heap. Be sure to look for this author-illustrator team's other hilarious collaborative efforts, including Piggies and Silly Sally. (Baby to preschool) --Emilie Coulter

 Best book for baby shower gift! November 29, 2008
My children and I love to read this book - and the CD has beautiful music and an excellent oration of the book as well as other great things to listen to. Beautiful pictures, lots of details to spend time with - or you can just read this delightful book for pure enjoyment. I like to give it to new mothers as it's less popular than the typical book - and hopefully introduces the authors to new parents. I love this book!
A favorite at our house! November 14, 2008
This book is one of my 16-month old's favorite books. She can't wait for each of them to wake up and make a loud noise and then she thinks it's so funny when they go outside to play in the sun and then asks for me to read it again!
The Napping House: Book and Musical CD August 15, 2008

Baby Shower Gift! April 15, 2008
I give this at almost every baby shower I go to. The CD adds so much, and Audrey Wood has captured the rainy nap day perfectly.
Great book, great CD, great price = a GREAT present
