NOW she's afraid of the monsters

Customer Rating:
My 3 year old loves this book. However, she never mentioned monsters under the bed until we read this book. Hmm.. seems that wasn't such a good idea to mention. We still read the book, but I skip over certain parts (monsters). I don't want to give my daughter something ELSE to worry about.

Cute book. BUT if your child doesn't know about "monsters", then I would wait or skip certain pages.

Sweet Sleepytime Story

Customer Rating:
"Good Night, D.W." is another in a series of recent Arthur/D.W. books aimed at slightly younger stories than the original Arthur stories in general. This one finds D.W. trying to get to sleep, but coming up with all sorts of reasons why she can't.

D.W. really wants to get to sleep, but just doesn't seem to be tired. Furthermre, the wind is making noise outside, and so is Baby Kate. Arthur and his parents come in and try to give her some things to help her out. But all of these things don't seem to help and only make her more awake.

"Good Night, D.W." is very cutely and lushly illustrated. One of the best things is the detail. Because this a book, the illustrations can include much more detail than what you usually see on the show. The best part is that D.W.'s normal pink sleeping jumpsuit is now adorned with images of herself, stars, Arthur and a crescent moon wearing a cap.
