It is a really funny picture book for infants. I would definitely buy this for my niece/nephew. I love the idea that children's books talk about things the kids see on a daily basis and impart lessons through that.

This was a cute story that is perfect for adding it into the bedtime routine. My toddler loved seeing the different animal beds and following it up by hopping into her own bed.

This book is super cute. It follows the story of a reindeer trying to find his bed. He tries out lots of different beds until he finds the one that suited him. My three year old enjoyed the story and the fun illustrations.

Unfortunately the ebook did not seem to work on either my kindle oasis nor my kids' kindle fire. We were able to read the text, however could not see most of the illustrations. Knowing this is an interactive book, and after reading the text, I would recommend a hard copy of this book to other parents.

The story is very cute and helps children understand that everyone has own space to sleep in. My 3 year old twins come to our bed pretty much every night, so we found this book quite useful.

My Bed is a fun, interactive book for toddlers about friends, sleeping, and finding your own space. Reindeer and his friends are tired and ready for bed. Reindeer climbs into beds only to realize each one belongs to a friend. The illustrations are colorful with appealing animal characters. Text has simple repetitive phrases with highlighted words. Kids will enjoy lifting the flaps to discover whose bed reindeer has climbed into each time. My Bed is sure to be a hit!

Cute story of a Reindeer searching for his bed after trying out everyone else's. It's pretty funny and I am sure small children will delight in the illustrations of reindeer trying to sleep in too small beds!

I liked the idea of the story being about this reindeer seeking out her bed and finally coming to realize she could happily share it with Owl, and my son seemed to enjoy it well enough, but I was disappointed in how poor the artwork was.

A cute story about animals who want to sleep in their own beds. This is a good story to show to little ones who don't want to sleep in their own beds. I would recommend to parents with toddlers.

I received an ARC from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

Lift the flap book. The reindeer tries to sleep in different beds and realizes that it belongs to someone else. At last it find its own bed. Colourful and bright illustrations

Thanks to netgalley

MY BED is about a reindeer trying to find his bed because it's late and all the little animals need to go to sleep. It's perfect for toddlers, with bold and clear illustrations; particularly for a toddler who is fighting the "Go to bed" moment.

In print form, this is a lift the flap book. In digital content, obviously, that is not possible...so the formatting becomes a bit weird on the Kindle. I'd highly recommend getting it in print for the little ones in your life.

Reindeer is looking for his bed but each one he tries out belongs to a different animal. This is the perfect book for little ones who don't want to go to bed.

A cute bedtime story for very young children- particularly if their parent is having some trouble getting them to sleep in their own bed. The illustrations of Reindeer in the wrong beds are funny and will get some laughs from little ones.

I found the pictures to be very confusing with the text. It was hard to tell whether Reindeer was kicking the other animals out of their beds or imagining kicking them out of the beds.

Great illustrations and fun story. Perfect for parents who have trouble getting kids to sleep in their own beds!

Indeed we all sleep best in our own beds! This book charmingly tracks the story of how Reindeer is trying to find his own bed, and in the process, introduces the reader to a group of animals. I love how Reindeer wishes each one goodnight and then, finally finds his own bed. Particularly sweet is how he thanks owl for keeping his bed warm! A lovely read for little ones. The illustrations are great. Definitely a book to keep by one's bedside. Sweet dreams!

Such a cute book about bedtime. The Reindeer in the story is trying to find his bed at the end of a long day. He tries all types of beds only to find out they aren't for him until he finds his own. The images are bright and bold and the text is short. All the animals in the book are adorable and I think this will be a great bedtime read for parents and their toddlers.

Review will be live on Cover2Cover closer to the release date.

The print edition of this book will probably be amazing. The digital edition is a bit funky because it reads out of order. There will be folds, and lift the flaps and the digital galley is formatted for how it will be printed, not for how it will be read once assembled. But that is Okay. You can get the feel of the story anyway. It’s like a longer Goldilocks, only this time it’s Reindeer trying to find the perfect bed. And Reindeer is right, it's great to have an already warmed bed.

It's nighttime, and all the animals are tired and ready for bed. Reindeer tries out every bed he sees, but they're not his! He grows more and more tired - will he ever find his own bed? This is an adorable lift-the-flap book that reveals the different animals whose beds Reindeer tries out. The animals are wearing bright, eye-catching pajamas that match their bedding, so kids can match up the animals with repeated reads. The nature of the book - Reindeer searching for his bed - and the lift the flap format makes for a great interactive read; invite the kids to call out whether or not they think it's Reindeer's bed. Give some exaggerated yawns as you continue reading, illustrating how tired Reindeer is getting. My library kiddos (and my own kiddo) love Anita Bijsterbosch's previous lift-the-flap books, When I Grow Up and Do You See My Tail, so this one is a go for me.

This board book would be a great addition for a Libraries preschool collection..

My Bed is a great book, similar to Goldilocks. Moose goes throughout the house, searching for his bed. Instead, he tries laying in all of the other animals' beds, quickly discovering that none of them fit him. Will Moose ever find his bed?
