5 out of 5 stars book review   April 10, 2008
I bought this book for my six year old grandson. I live out of state and have not seen the book, but my daughter says the book is very nice. My grandson says he loves the book.


4 out of 5 stars Good Read!   April 6, 2008
My six year old grandson and I liked the book very much. He has used some of the methods on his parents.


5 out of 5 stars My Parents Think I'm Sleeping   October 20, 2007
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

I just love Prelutsky. I have many of his books and read them to my grandchildren as often as I can. His use of language is so adventurous, so creative and often very funny. It really gets the kids to think and hopefully be adventurous and creative in their own use of our wonderful English language.I must confess I often read out aloud to myself, I love a bedtime story even though I am over 60. Rhythmic language and a bit of a giggle really helps me sleep.


5 out of 5 stars Gets him in bed and keeps him there!   October 27, 2004
 8 out of 9 found this review helpful

I have been reading this book to my 3 year old son every night for the past week. He is a TERROR to get to bed despite keeping him in his regular routine. After we started this book all I would have to say after bath is "time for Parents think I'm sleeping" and he hops in bed without a fuss. The poems are pretty cute and the pictures are a delight. I think he likes it bc he thinks he's getting one over on his parents just like the boy in the book. I am thrilled with this book and intend on getting more from this author.


5 out of 5 stars Nice collection of poems   March 14, 2000
 10 out of 10 found this review helpful

This collection of poems relate to bedtime and nighttime. While much shorter than Jack's better known collections ("New Kid on the Block", etc.), I believe the emotional range is broader in this book. This book includes wistful poems and cutesy-scary poems, that would feel out of place in Jack's funny poems compilations. Of course, there are many funny poems, but the real gems are the others.

High marks to Jack.
