Good Night, Gorilla

My 14-month old son runs to the bookshelf, grabs this book, and thrusts it in our direction to read to him over and over again - he just can't get enough of it! My husband and I have each read it to him dozens of times and happily we aren't bored of it either; the illustrations are excellent, and the story is creative and funny. I highly recommend this book.

A very poor book compared to "Goodnight Moon". Just mooching off the the "good night" kiddie book market.

My son has been reading this since he was 8 mos old, he loves to look at the pictures (there are minimal words) while I describe what is going on. At about 11 mos, when he got to the page where the zookeeper's wife finds Gorilla in bed, he laughed out loud! It's so cute to see him "get it."

As he gets older, there are many smaller details in the pictures that will catch his attention, so it's a nice book that will grow with him.

Goodnight Gorilla is a perfect bedtime book or for those young children just learning to read. The book has colorful illustrations and repetitive phrases that make it easy for young ones to understand and follow along.

Goodnight Gorilla follows a zoo keeper as he says goodnight to all the animals. The gorilla swipes his keys and lets all the animals out, which of course, follow the zoo keeper home and into his bedroom at night. My 2 year old thinks its hilarious. Its one of his favorite books. I'm so glad we got it. Its a real hit.

What a winner this book is! Great pictures. The repetitive phrases are repeated over and over by my liitle tyke. He has to hear it every night before bedtime and repeats the words as they are read.
