Read Now Download Now
A gift-worthy hardcover edition of the classic cumulative tale that's perfect for bedtime, naptime... anytime!

In the napping house is a cozy bed piled high with a snoring granny, a dreaming child, a dozing dog, a snoozing cat, and a slumbering mouse. All is at peace until the appearance of an unexpected visitor and before you know it, no one is sleeping!

Cumulative rhymes are reassuring – they soothe and amuse and stay with us throughout our lives. This gently story about "a napping house" will do all those things. It's a simple tale – just a cozy bed, with a snoring granny, a dreaming child, a dozing dog, a snoozing – but wait! There's a surprise, a delightful surprise, in store, and the youngest listeners will want to hear it again and again.

Superb full-color illustrations bring the quiet moments and small scenes to life with variety and grace. They supplement the tale, filling in charming details that go beyond the story and reflect a change in weather as well as in mood. Furry pets you yearn to stroke, floppy pillows, wet raindrops, and big, sleepy yawns, all convey the essence of rhymes and make them memorable.

This classic story by Audrey Wood and illustrated by Caldecott-honoree Don Wood is a must-have for the family library. Together author and illustrator have created a classic treasure for children and their children's children.
