Perfect for naptime wind down

My twin daughters love this book and we were excited to find in as an audio book. We listen to it before every nap time and it helps calm them. I especially love the music and sounds of rain in the background.

perfect for early learners

it's a little over dramatized by the reader but the story is timeless and fun.

this one has pictures just like the book

so excited!!! This one has all the pictures that the book does and all the way through the story you can see just like in the book. Perfect for my littlest one who expects to see a picture for each part of the story just like sitting and reading a story from a book with Mommy and her lap.

Short but sweet.

I prefer this to the print book. Not a fan of the illustrations but it's a cute story.
