Our daughter loves this book! She tries to stay awake every time but sometimes sleep catches her! We will soon read this to her brother when he fights sleep. This is a book to share with all little people struggling at bedtime. Well done and thank you for sharing with our family! The Goodans in Montana
This is a nice bedtime story about little boy who doesn't want to go to sleep. When his dad tells him that all little boys need their sleep, Matty decides that he is going to be a lion cub instead. Unfortunately for Matty, Dad tells him that even lion cubs need sleep. "They'll like next to their daddy lions, on the soft grass, underneath the savannah sky." Matty then decides he will be a little dragon. "I'll have blue, scaly skin and huge wings. I'll live in Camelot and fly over all the great castles. I'll be the bravest, fire-breathing dragon ever." But Dad has more bad news for Matty. "Even dragons in Camelot need their sleep. The daddy dragon flies over his little dragon home to their cozy cave. There they have a soft bed of leaves to curl up on." The story continues on in this vein; Matty trying to find something he can be that does not need sleep and Dad telling him that even that creature needs sleep. I personally found the story a bit boring; IMO it went on for too long. My five year old son, however, liked it well enough. To that end this book gets 3 1/2 stars...or it would if allowed 1/2 star ratings.
Once again, Michael Yu, has written a great book. This time, for bedtime. The book is about a boy who can't, or doesn't want to, go to sleep. He isn't tired. He then tells his Daddy he wants to be like his panda, his frog, etc. He goes through the entire collection. Each time, Daddy has a great story of why those animals would be tired and what the animal's Daddy would do to help the animal go to sleep. This is ingenious, Michael! I would be remiss if I didn't mention the illustrations. They are beautiful. So life-like, and yet cartoon-like. I think it's the eyes. The book is beautifully written and beautifully illustrated. This book would give any parent another idea to helping get younger kids to sleep. Well done!
I tried reading this to A before bed and she didn't seem into it. I read it to K last night and he seem to enjoy it. I always have a problem putting K to bed as he doesn't like to go. And so this book we see that a young boy named Matty isn't sleepy and so he uses his toys as what if he was this kind of animal or a robot he wouldn't need sleep. And each and every time his father gives him a reason as to even if he was a robot or a panda he would still need sleep. I think this is a perfect story for the young kids especially those that do not like to sleep. They can see that no matter what you still need to go to sleep in a fun way.I though the pictures were done wonderfully and catchy to the eye.I do plan on reading this some more to my son and maybe one day A.
Another great entry from Michael Wu and family. With a story bounded by family and driving a twofold message. On the surface it is just a story of the need for sleep, which is important enough for the target audience. But it goes beyond just "sleep because I tell you to," as it also goes towards the qualities sleep (and good health in the bigger picture) will enable our kids to attain.Very enjoyable story, which, as always, I share with my seven year old. With the wide range of animals and objects (robots, etc.) it was a great launching pad for more interatcion.Well recommended and as usual the illustrations are of the best quality.
As a father to 3 little ones, and as the author of Children's Book: Lonny the Lion Loves his Sweets! (Bedtime Stories Collection), I can greatly relate to the daily challenge of implementing healthy routines to our children's lives. Whether it's acquiring good sleeping habits, or eating nourishing food, our little ones need to realize the importance of these daily routines, and this book does a great job at this!
Even though everybody -- people and creatures -- has BIG eyes, I found the illustrations striking, relaxing and beautiful. Except I would've wished for more facial expressions--the mouth never changed, rather static. I guess this is a style of anime art, which the artist , Phoenix Chan, created with originality and tenderness.The lines are melodic, simple and soothing, although perhaps a bit repetitious. Sweet are all the creatures -- frog, wolf cub, fairy, panda, a robot -- all dolls or toys that the boy has with him in his room and bed. That's a tender touch of appreciation and imagination. The warm and tender relationship between boy and father is deeply moving. Dads should read this book to their children often!
I'M A SINGLE MOM, SO ITS KINDA HARD TO READ THIS STORY TO MY KIDS (like the BOY in the book) which Is basically a story for a boy and his dad. But, I improvised with the wording right for our situation, and this is one of our favorite books.... a 4-5x a week must. And it works like a charm too...1 is always out before the story is 1/2 over and the other is almost out. Love it!!!!
