Good Night Gorilla FULL SKULL BABY!

My 2 1/2 yr old son and 3 1/2 yr. old daughter love this dvd. My daughter loves the gorilla and although the hyenna tends to look like a bear, this dvd does the book well and gets its giggles. The other stories are winners too, my son loves How Dinosaurs say Good Night. I recommend this one and if you dont have Where the Wild Things Are, I recommend that one as well.

Moons, Hats and Bedtime FULL SKULL BABY!

A wonderful collection of animated tales based on popular children's books. I bought this one because Good-Night Gorilla and The Napping House are favorites at home.

In Good-Night Gorilla a small gorilla manages to sneak out of the zoo and takes the other animals with him to the zookeeper's house. Very true to the original book.

In How Do Dinosaurs Say Goodnight, we learn that they do not fuss and fume and neither should you. Very interestingly done as the story moves from house to house.

Happy Birthday Moon is about a little bear who decides the Moon must have a birthday and sets out celebrate. A charming story.

The Napping House is creatively done with stills to show a house where everyone is sleeping and what happens when an awake flea comes by.

Patrick is a wonderful wordless story of a boy/man who buys a fiddle and fills the world with wonder and color.

The Paperboy tells the story of a small boy and how he runs his paper route when the rest of the world is sleeping. Illustrated with sequential stills to simulate movement.

The Hat is the story of a penniless veteran who comes across a marvelous hat that changes his fortunes around.

Great buy for the money FULL SKULL BABY!
Bedtime is a difficult time at my house. My 2 year old does not need to sleep. I purchased this hoping that it had bedtime stories on it that would keep his attention but put him to sleep. It is wonderful. Aside from hte wonderful selction of books, the stories are narrated by gentle voices and there is soft lullabye type music in the background. It has been a real tool in helping our child fall asleep.
