Book Reviews of Dr Seuss's Sleep Book
Book Review: My favorite bedtime story from childhood
Summary: 5 Stars
I am amazed that more people do not know this classic book by Dr. Seuss.
I will mention this title and frequently I am met by blank stares.
Dr. Seuss's Sleep Book is a wonderful book that allows adults to yawn repeatedly throughout the reading and it will cause youngsters to become sleepy. Of course, one side effect is that the adult will also become sleepy from yawning while reading it.
The creatures are wonderfully strange and humorous in the classic Dr. Seuss style.
I. Love. This. Book.
I frequently give it as a gift to friends with small children.
Book Review: Dr. Seuss's Sleep Book
Summary: 5 Stars
Not just a bedtime book, although it is one of the best around. I have used this book when tutoring dyslexic children. The alliterative rhymes on every pair of facing pages provides ample opportunity for young readers to practice their skills. In addition, each pair of facing pages is like a short, short story itself. This highly imaginative work is hilarious for the adult as well, making reading this book aloud a joy(the only way to really get the rhyme and humor), even when a child wants the book read over and over numerous times. Excellent book for children age five through adulthood!Book Review: My all-time favorite childhood book!

Dr. Seuss' Sleep Book is an all-time classic in my opinion. While, as a kid, I was the only person I knew with a copy, it was most certainly my favorite and I asked for it to be read over and over again. I kept the household copy (older sister and brother loved it, too) and now that I have a daughter of my own, I have a copy of her own to enjoy (I'm keeping my own!!) and have been reading it to her since before she was born. It definitely makes me sleepy and despite having heard it, I'm sure, thousands of times, I still love it! A must-have for kids of all ages!Book Review: Collapsible Frink!!
Summary: 5 Stars
Theodore Geisel was a great, great man. I remember opening up this book for the first time during library hour at P.S. 59 when I was 7 or 8 and laughing so hard I could barely breathe, eliciting funny looks from my classmates (more than usual, anyway). Oh, how I loved this book. The line (and the attendant, very silly illustration) that really set me off was: "The Collapsible Frink just collapsed in a heap!" I just about collapsed in a heap myself. Dr. Seuss's glorious word-play and love of the absurd reach a zenith in this classic.Book Review: One of the greatest childrens books ever...

Everyone has heard of The Cat in the Hat, but I can't believe that so few people have been lucky enough to experience Dr. Seuss's Sleep Book. I can't think of another bedtime story that doesn't pale in comparison to this one.. As a child, I read it so much that at one point actually had it memorized... To this day I can still recite most of it! "The news just came in from the County of Keck.." and by the time I get to the last few lines... I'm always ready to sleep! Definately belongs in the top ten books of all time.
