I bought this for my 9-year old son who has a learning disability and is delayed in reading. It's tough to find books for him that are engaging and not too "babyish", yet still have simple works for him to read. He loved this book and has even read it more than once. Highly recommend.
I just love Prelutsky. I have many of his books and read them to my grandchildren as often as I can. His use of language is so adventurous, so creative and often very funny. It really gets the kids to think and hopefully be adventurous and creative in their own use of our wonderful English language.I must confess I often read out aloud to myself, I love a bedtime story even though I am over 60. Rhythmic language and a bit of a giggle really helps me sleep.
I have been reading this book to my 3 year old son every night for the past week. He is a TERROR to get to bed despite keeping him in his regular routine. After we started this book all I would have to say after bath is "time for Parents think I'm sleeping" and he hops in bed without a fuss. The poems are pretty cute and the pictures are a delight. I think he likes it bc he thinks he's getting one over on his parents just like the boy in the book. I am thrilled with this book and intend on getting more from this author.
This is a great book to give a first grader who is starting to read. We purchased this for our son who thought it was pretty funny that he was reading when we thought he was sleeping. The level is on target and can be read without assistance from a parent. Of course, reading together at night is also fun. Jack Prelutsky books were read to me when I grew up, and they continue to be fun for my kids.
Horribly scary. This is what my almost 7 year old son who has no fear of anything told me. "please mom, send it back" Why in this world would someone illustrate a book in a such scary way? Specially because the title of the book is not related to scary things like some monsters and ghosts that are cleared stamped on this book. They are big and if your child like reading and is paying attention (reading it with you) there is no way you will be able to skip the pages like another reviewer suggested. I am sending it back and I will be more careful when ordering books online.
I wonder if this author has children. My 6 yr old, who sleeps peacefully through the night with no nightmares or sleeping problems, would probably be terrified if I gave him this book. What I thought was going to be a fun read about a child trying to stay up late, turned out to be a spooky book that gave me the creeps.
This collection of poems relate to bedtime and nighttime. While much shorter than Jack's better known collections ("New Kid on the Block", etc.), I believe the emotional range is broader in this book. This book includes wistful poems and cutesy-scary poems, that would feel out of place in Jack's funny poems compilations. Of course, there are many funny poems, but the real gems are the others.High marks to Jack.
Some of the words are a little tricky for a beginning reader, but my 6 year old loves this book when I read it out loud to him. He's able to read some of the poems by himself and he enjoys the figurative language. For my part, I also enjoy reading this book more than most beginning reader books--the language is fun and uses some great imagery.
