Being sealed in plastic packaging sometimes causes the scent of these natural products to concentrate to a disagreeable level. A few hours of airing usually removes the odor.

"I can see what people mean about the color - it's more of a cream than a yellow, but isn't ecru or beige. It's very well made, and the fabric is very nice as well as pretty and cheery. I got it for my mom, who's in a nursing home, and hope it will stand up to the occasional trip to their laundry when they forget to put it in my basket."

"We got this for our nephew, who is living off campus now and will need to feed himself - no more meal plan. It seems a little advanced for the title but includes the basics. Since he's living on easymac (aren't they all?), the occasional cafeteria meal, fast food, and all the leftovers from home he can fit in a cooler it should point him in the right direction."

Reading level: Baby-Preschool
Board book: 34 pages
Publisher: HarperFestival; Board edition

Simple illustrations and a gentle rhyming text combine to tell the story of a sleepy young rabbit saying goodnight to all the things he can see and hear as he drifts off to sleep. Alternating double page, full color paintings with single page, B&W spot paintings, this classic bedtime tale has lulled countless children to sleep since it was first published in 1947. Sharp-eyed readers can search for the little mouse that is hiding within each of the color illustrations and note how, as this bedtime tale progresses, the illustrations grow subtly darker, setting the stage for sleep.

"Rather than buy a new mattress for our old bones I decided to add this topper, and it feels like we are sleeping on one of those super plush/thick new mattresses without it being as high. No more complaints from my husband, it's so comfortable! I'm considering getting one for our daughter's hard dorm bed as well. Thank you Overstock!"

"Pretty quilted top, very good price, fits our old not too tall mattress fine and should have enough room for an egg crate cushion underneath. Nice not to have to search in stores where selection is limited, thanks!"
