The Napping House Hardcover - 2009

by Audrey Wood; Don Wood (Illustrator)

A colorful riot of a bedtime story about sleepy people and animals napping in a cozy bed. Full-color illustrations throughout. "Booklist" Editors' Choice; Golden Kite Award; IRA/CBC Children's Choice; NCTE Teachers' Choice; "New York Times" Best Illustrated Children's Book of the Year.


Summary

A cozy bed, a snoring granny, a dreaming child, a dozing dog, a snoozing--WAIT! There's a surprise in store, and little ones will want to discover it over and over again. So pull on your sleeping cap and snuggle in for a timeless cumulative tale that's truly like no other. Don and Audrey Wood's beloved picture book has sold more than one and a half million copies. To celebrate its birthday, the original hardcover book now has a fresh new design for both the jacket and interior, and the reproduction of the illustrations has been enhanced to better match the original artwork. A CD is tucked into a sleeve on the inside the front cover. The music, originally produced in 1989, is based on the book and was written and performed by children's musicians Carl and Jennifer Shaylen. The CD begins with a reading of the story and follows with six original songs that are just as fun, jaunty, and sweet as the book itself.

From the publisher

The classic silly cumulative tale that's perfect for bedtime, naptime...anytime!

In the napping house is a cozy bed piled high with a snoring granny, a dreaming child, a dozing dog, a snoozing cat, and a slumbering mouse. What could be more comfy?

All is at peace until a wakeful flea crawls into the mix. One beastly bite from him and the entire pyramid of sleepers might topple. Is he getting ready to nibble?

Humorous and inviting, this story encourages young kids to read along--and make predictions.
