Thank You and Good Night Board book – Picture Book, October 2, 2018

You know that you've struck gold when you don't want to return a picture book to the library. I kept hold of this one until the last day, and it legitimately saddened me to drop it in the return chute. I now have it on order from Amazon. I do not buy very many books, but I cherish the ones that I do. For me, this is an instant classic.The illustrations, done in pen and watercolor on handmade paper, are beautiful. I consistently enjoy McDonnell's style and this one doesn't disappoint.The story starts out cute enough and gets better as it goes along. Three little friends have a fun time during a sleepover. When it's time to lay down, they go over all the things they are thankful for during the day. The prose here is beautiful. The ending, which was a happy little twist, filled my heart with unexpected joy. I could read this one every night to my children.

Wonderful book! Gorgeous illustrations and just a cute and sweet bedtime book. This is my go-to for gifts for baby showers or 1st birthdays. (Pair with a stuffed animal — I usually choose an elephant — and/or a sleeper/pajamas and it’s a great, themed gift!).

This book I ordered for my daughter in law, she loves reading to my grand daughter and my little grand daughter loves her reading to her too. This book is excellent, wonderfully written with beautiful artwork and illustrations definitely recommend this seller for great quality

Thank you and Good Night is a lovely little story that encourages imaginations and nurtures grateful hearts. It harkens back to the days of Goldilocks, Winnie the Pooh, Babar and the Velveteen Rabbit. Patrick McDonnell's drawings and colors are exquisite, and his bedtime rhyme is especially touching. You will count your blessings after reading this dreamy tale of Maggie and her three animal friends.

I love this book. Such a sweet little story! Teaches appreciation for simple pleasures and good friends by example, not by preaching. An important lesson for any toddler/preschooler. We are not religious, so this aproach to greatfulness is even more appreciated by me.

This is a sweet, lovely book. We got it first as a library book, but I loved it so much I bought it as a gift. Recommend all by this author.

This is a gem. One of those books that seems so timeless we were surprised it was new. Both the kid and the parents loved. Super sweet and enough interesting things for the toddler to find on each page.

Amazing book! I love the illustrations and the writing. Two year old loves it! It’s right up there with Goodnight, Moon.

Beautifully illustrated, a touching bedtime story, playful and meaningful. Adorable characters and overall the perfect bad time book for young children.

A favourite for the whole family since the kids were very little. We know the little poem of by heart, it's so sweet! We have started buying it as gift for friends and family with kids.

My 2 year old son loves this book and I love reading it to him. It's sweet and he loves the page where the stuffed animals are making funny faces. I love the poem near the end where it talks about being thankful for all of the fun they had together.

Bought as a gift but I read it before giving it away and it is a beautiful book. There's is a nice little poem at the end that I especially loved. The illustrations are amazing too.

Excellent
