Our copy of "Good Night, Gorilla" is currently sitting out in the minivan because Kiera insisted on bringing it along on an outing last week, and then didn't bring it back inside.
Why do you have a copy on your nightstand?
Mason LOVES "Good Night, Gorilla"!
"10 Minutes 'til Bedtime" is definitely favored over "Goodnight Gorilla" in our house. I think it has something to do with all the hamster antics in the background. :)
