Bedtime Story : Snuggle Puppy


Synopsis: "A great big hug in book form, "Snuggle Puppy" is a year-round valentine from parent to child. It is bright, chunky, a pleasure to hold, and has a die-cut cover that reveals a glimpse of the joy inside before it's even opened. Best of all, it's packed, of course, with pure Boynton: her inimitable language, her inimitable illustrations, her inimitable sense of fun.
OOO, Snuggle Puppy of mine! Everything about you is especially fine. I love what you are. I love what you do. Fuzzy little Snuggle Puppy, I love you. Featuring a sweet and cuddly doggie cast and rhyming verse, "Snuggle Puppy" is the perfect bedtime book to read last, because of an ending that kids will want again and again: I started with OOO. . . . Now we'll end like this: [BIG SMOOCH!]"


My Review: Well this one is cute but it is suppose to be a song but I can't figure out the rhythm or tune it is suppose to be sung to. But it is a cute book and I love that you get to smooch your little ones while reading. It has cute illustrations and bright colors for the little eyes.

My Rating: This is a cute book and I usually like Boynton's books but I just can't figure out how this song is suppose to be sung. I give it a rating of Two Paws.


Good Night, Sweet Dreams!

  1. Awww, I love this book. Both my kids love it too. I don't know what tune is meant to be sung, but we made one up the first time and have used it every time.

    1. I was asking hubs and he said Sandra Boynton has the songs to her books on her website.

      (It's sort of what we sing but a little more "musical"

    2. Wow! Thanks for the info Lisa! I will definitely check it out even though I probably shouldn't sing and ruin Munchkin's hearing LOL!

  2. Oooh I will have to check out that website as well! My son adores this book, and we kind of made up our own rhythm for it...I wonder if it's much different than the one on the site.

    1. You guys are all rather talented to come up with your own tune to sing the book with, maybe in a couple more years I would have figured it out but no one really needs to hear that LOL!
