Some stories are made for reading aloud on a rainy afternoon, curled up in a cozy corner with a little one tucked under your arm. This is one of them.
The Napping House is a classic silly cumulative tale that’s perfect for bedtime, naptime… anytime.
In the napping house, there’s a cozy bed piled high with a snoring granny, a dreaming child, a dozing dog, a snoozing cat, and a slumbering mouse. What could be more comfy? All is peaceful and quiet.
Until a wakeful flea crawls into the mix.
One beastly bite, and the whole gently snoring pyramid might just come tumbling down. Is he getting ready to nibble? Little readers will lean in, giggle, and start guessing what happens next.
That’s the magic here. The rhythmic, repeating lines invite children to read along and make predictions, building early literacy skills without ever feeling like a lesson. It’s pure, wobbly, joyful fun.
This board book edition is built for the youngest hands. Sturdy pages and rounded corners mean it can survive plenty of enthusiastic page-turning (and the occasional taste test). It makes a wonderful gift for babies, toddlers, and the grown-ups who love reading to them.
Beloved by families for decades and a longtime favorite on our shelves, The Napping House has earned its place as a modern classic of the bedtime shelf.
Come browse our board book nook the next time you wander in off the salt air. We’d love to help you find the perfect story for your littlest reader.
