Boynton Moo Media teams up with award-winning Loud Crow Interactive, to bring to life her beloved, funny, wildly best-selling bedtime board book, The Going to Bed Book.
“I absolutely adore working with the ridiculously creative and innovative team at Loud Crow, and I am so proud of what we’ve done together with The Going to Bed Book. Our interactive book app version of my book manages to both retain the original board book experience, and add subtle and captivating dimension to it. It’s such wonderful fun. And oh! I am so smitten by Billy J. Kramer’s infinitely reassuring narration for this, and Michael Ford’s understated and lovely piano composition.” - Sandra Boynton
Far beyond any e-book experience, The Going to Bed Book app has all the magic and appeal of a traditional pop-up book, offering lively interactivity and thoroughly mesmerizing and delightful discovery.
Features:
* Imagine! An ark that rocks.
* Touch, pull, and turn animals and objects to make them move, or tilt your device to watch things slide and cascade
* Tap water that turns on and off, and steam that fogs the screen. Can you write your name in the steam? Of course!
* There are teeth to brush, and a group exercise session with ten pajama-clad animals (big and small) each with its own unique exercise.
* Help the little piggy turn off the lights, then rock yourself to sleep to the music box sound of beautiful twinkling stars.
* There's something wonderful to discover on every page.
* "The Big Guy Reads It" narration mode with word highlighting to help improve reading skills
* Or “I want to read it myself” and hear individual words pronounced with the tap of a finger
* Wonderful resonant and gentle narration by British Invasion legend, Billy J. Kramer
* Boynton’s original text and illustrations for her popular The Going to Bed Book (over 5 million in print!)
Boynton adds, “Of course The Going to Bed Book app is first and foremost for children, and I know they will be captivated and delighted. But it’s also perfect for agitated high-level executives. What a great evening-time alternative to reviewing the minutes of last week’s Near-Term Strategic Wombat Acquisitions meeting.”

8 of 25My 11mo old loves it. Lots of fun Easter eggs to discover. We haven't found anything "too small."
I wish all the books my kids love had an app like this! Especially with purchasing once and the app has worked for YEARS. That’s quality you don’t find these days with hidden subscriptions and annoying ads all over kids “free” entertainment
Thanks so much for this update! We commute to my daughter's daycare by subway, and not a morning goes by that she doesn't go through all of the Boynton books on my phone. They are by far her favorite apps, and I was worried that the next iOS update would not support them. Here's hoping the other books come soon!
It's flawed in so many ways, it a small book but it shouldn't be this small on a iPad, old tech crammed into a new tech world just has the feel of pleather in a luxury organic leather with fine glass polish world. The same company makes the Peter Rabbit series, AAA quality there, clearly this was built by the D - team. Its hard to touch the tiny text, tiny objects, tiny, tiny, tiny... When you see red arrows to tell what you can do on the screen, that should tell you, red flag! Its not intuitive to use, even for a child... Goodnight moon book is done by the same team and i regret buying both of these without reading the reviews first, this book needs to learn from the green eggs and ham series on how a book could be entertaining in this new tech eWorld.
Why is it silent?
I thought that this was a great app to accompany a nice bedtime story. The only problem I see in the future (or now even, if I want to ask questions while I read) is that even when you say "read by myself" the narrator still reads for you anyway. Kind of frustrating, but not enough to make me regret this purchase.
A couple months ago the sound just quit working on all my boynton books apps. Please fix! My 3 year old is devastated.
My son loves the Sandra Boynton books. I bought him the bundle Pack for his birthday, but unfortunately there is no sound. I wish I would have read the reviews beforehand. I noticed that the developer team responded to the reviews with a website to contact them to fix the issue. Again I was met with disappointment as the email I had written out failed to send regardless of the device I was using.
