Both of my sons enjoyed this book, but my youngest loved it the most. He was 3 at the time, and this was one of his most well loved books for quite some time. Even then he rarely chose to hear this book in the daytime. He would always choose this at night and carefully place at the bottom of the pile of books, insisting that I save this one for last. If he grew very tired and was starting to nod off before reaching the end of the pile of books he would pull this one out and hand it to me. I knew then that he would be asleep soon. This book has a lovely, peaceful and soothing quality to it, making it ideal for helping children drift into a tranquil sleep. Now that he is growing older it is read less often, but even when it is completely outgrown, I will never part with this book. I have too many memories of my son gently falling asleep after this story, although he almost never fell asleep before it was over. He still enjoys this book now and then, but even when it is completely outgrown, I will keep this book. I have too many wonderful memories of this story to ever let it go. I hope that some day he will read this to his own sons.
If this book appeals then you'll also love [[The Way Back Home by Oliver Jeffers|The Way Back Home]] and [[This Moose Belongs To Me by Oliver Jeffers|This Moose Belongs To Me]] both also by Oliver Jeffers. Jeffers also illustrated [[Imaginary Fred by Eoin Colfer and Oliver Jeffers|Imaginary Fred by Eoin Colfer]].
