One of my absolute favourites, and - as you can guess - a great bedtime book. It has repetitive, predictable text, it rhymes and the pictures (of animals) are beautiful! What more could you want from a children's book! We read this to our first child the night she was born and I have read it to children up to eight years of age and they have all enjoyed it. If you like good quality children's books, you'll love this one!

Lovely bedtime read but the illustations could be better I thought. A good book all the same. Great rhymes and loving messages.

My children have all loved this as a bedtime book. The repetitive text has a lovely rhythm to it that they enjoy. The illustrations of baby animals with their mothers are beautiful. As the kids got older they loved to join in with the story, filling in the name of the animal. Lovely to read and look at. Highly recommended.

A beautifully written and illustrated book. My 22 month old daughter has enjoyed this story as a night time read for over a year, and gets excited at the different animals in the story. The repetitive "It's time to sleep..." on each page is a nice, relaxing way to send your little one off to bed. The book, although simply written, is also a perfect read for older children, and would be sure to be a favourite.

The only problem with having this book as a bedtime story is that the kids will be up all night wanting more more more from this fantastic book. it's adorably cute and kids will cherish is long after they stop having bedtime stories The Lambs on the cover is what drew me into this book as it shows the gently nature of a child in their innocent dreams....

My 3 year old loves this bedtime story, and the illustrations of different animals cuddling and caring for their young are gorgeous. The rhythm of the story is lovely and soothing and has become a favourite in our house. It is just long enough to settle your child and encourage rest time. Basically, I have found that you can't go wrong with a Mem Fox book!

This book is a lovely bedtime read and particularly good for little ones who find it hard to get to sleep. This promotes sleep and is very calming and soothing, perfect to wind down your child at the end of a busy day. Beautiful illustrations and a simple, easy to follow story line. Sure to make bedtime popular! A reasonable price as well
