A funny picture book about Reindeer and his own bed. For sleepy toddlers ages 24 months and up, with a focus on the child's daily life.
There's a star in the sky. Bear, Rabbit, Reindeer and the other animals are tired. Time for bed! Reindeer tries every bed he sees, but which bed is really his?
"The views of Reindeer awkwardly sprawled atop or wedged into hammocks or different types of too-small or otherwise unsuitable bedsteads are positively chuckleworthy?.The bright, matte colors are eye-catching, offering just the right balance of busyness to help guide board-book readers into more-complicated compositions?.."We all sleep best," the simply phrased narrative concludes, "in our own bed." Truer words?" - Kirkus Reviews
"With pages that fold out, and wonderfully colorful illustrations, this book is perfect for bedtime. Children will enjoy trying to figure out whose bed belongs to whom, and they will be rooting for poor Reindeer, who is not having much luck finding his bed." -- Through the Looking Glass Children's Reviews
"Great addition to any home library." - Nicole Caudle
"This fun book introduces toddlers to different animal's names and reassures them that their very own bed is the best. The illustrations are colourful, sweet and expressive. This book is a perfect bedtime read... shared of course cuddling together under the covers of your child's very own favourite bed." - Marilyn Panton, Storywraps
"A wonderful addition to the family library." - Carla Johnson-Hicks, educator
"A great fun book for bedtime which I'm sure toddlers will love." - Laura Hainsworth
Praise for Anita Bijsterbosch's EVERYONE IS YAWNING: "A "yawner" in the best sense, this parade of sleepyheads isn't just a series of variations on the same motion. it offers a mix of repetition and low-key interactive surprises....Irresistibly somniferous." -- KIRKUS REVIEWS -- starred! "All the animals--including the snake and the hippo--are tired and YAWNING in this fun-to-read flap book. I love the colorful illustrations, and the simple text is not so repetitive that it can't be read again and again. It's perfect as a bedtime story for those little ones who resist the pull of the pillow. Trust me--you'll find yourself yawning, too!"-- Barb Bassett, Red Balloon Bookshop "The art is colorful and engaging and the simple text has a defined focus. A quick story and exercise, perfect for nap or bed-time sharing."- School Library Journal "Children can make ... animals yawn on the subsequent pages, and the effect is just as goofily charming each time. Finally, it's the child's turn to yawn and go to sleep, piled up with all of the sleepy animals. Resistance (to yawning) is futile." -- PUBLISHERS WEEKLY "A well-illustrated, well-told repetitive-pattern book is worth its weight in gold in a classroom of beginning readers, and this one fills the bill perfectly....The repetition offers great support for fledgling readers, and the illustrations answer any remaining questions they might have. This book is right up there with the royalty of pattern books such as Bill Martin Jr. - Brown Bear, Brown Bear (Holt, 1996) and Janet and Allan Ahlberg's Each Peach Pear Plum (Puffin, 1986). Delightful and useful." -- School Library Journal (on WHOSE HAT IS THAT?)
