A Shared Favorite
We first took this book out of the library, and I was super skeptical. In fact, I didn't even want to read it. I'm an older mom and kind of old school, I guess, because I often don't like the move in children's books to wacky fonts, postmodern collage-y text, and so on. The big "beep, beep" and different colored fonts initially deterred me.However, this has turned into one of my favorite children's book and certainly my favorite one published in the past decade. It's clever. It's cute. It's so rich in detail that every time I read it I notice some new aspect of the illustrations that just completely delight me. And, most importantly (I guess), kids love it (my son and nephews).The storyline is sweet and clever: the little boy is in the role of parent trying to get his robots to bed and asleep; followed by another twist--the robots are actually putting him to bed and to sleep. It's the traditional telling of the bedtime routine as bed time story, but with a great twist. I also love the things that the robot's say that imitate what children say at bed time but are robot specific,The illustrations are loaded with such fun details: the expression on the little boy's face as his robots run amuck in the bathroom; the robots actually turning out the lights, closing the books, etc.; the mouse with the eye mask to block out the light one of the robot's needs on. Priceless.Oh--and those multicolored fonts? They are color coordinated to the robots and the boy's pajamas. Amazing attention to detail with this book.And yes, my son likes it too:)

Got this for my 3 year old grandson, and he loves it....the illustrations are great. The sounds and rhyming factor are fun for a kid and it's just a really cute story. Highly recommend this book!

A sweet bedtime story
This book is a massive favorite with my little kiddos. Like, a read-it-three-times-every-night kind of favorite. It has amazing illustrations and an adorable story, so thankfully it's fun for grown ups to read as well. AND it's pretty short, which is helpful if you're faced with a never ending night time story routine. I'd suggest this book as a great gift for robot lovers ages 4 and under.

What is it now?
This is the perfect bedtime story. Its short, sweet sentences and brightly colored imagery work perfectly to satisfy the most demanding of customers! Both my boys love this book and have pretty much memorized this by heart. They have even come up with their own little parody of the book. The mouse is a great touch! We originally stumbled across this at the library, and when my youngest fell in love with it we knew we had to own a copy. Kudos to the authors because they really understand little robots! I hope there's a sequel of some kind...maybe a breakfast story or a camping story! A highly recommended read.

LOVE THIS BOOK
I like the entire idea of the book. He is trying to get his Robots to go to sleep. One after want something. Finally after catering to the robots, the boy falls asleep himself. One robot says the FINALLY got their boy to sleep. It is just the cutest book.

Cool book for boys
Bought this cause my son loved it when we checked it out at the library. I knocked off a star cause I purchased this new from amazon but the book felt and looked used.

Brings a 3 year old running to the phone!
This book is ADORABLE! The artwork is absolutely gorgeous and the story is very clever. My 3 year old grandson lives in Italy and is obsessed with robots. I have to find ways to connect with him over FaceTime and this has been a winner! He will definitely come running to the phone if I will read “Beep Beep Go to Sleep” to him!
