Summary: Simple, straight and good story for young child
Comment: I got this book, in fact, a gift set when my first-born was 11 months old. She is a year now and my husband reads this to her every evening before her bed time in both language - English and Mandarin, while she is holding the Maisy in her hands.
I don't think she quite understands what this story is about, but it's the color, the texture of feeling a book that matters, and I believe strongly that to get her interested in books the earlier of her life the better.
She carries the Maisy toy to bed and falls asleep. I just wish I could find a bigger size of Maisy toy to let her hold on to.
In short, this is a good book, I am planning to get the rest of them, if you can find a gift set with Maisy toy, get it.

Summary: A bedtime book with Maisy as the star
Comment: Maisy is a mouse with her own television show on Nickelodeon. The show is done in a narrated style on the adventures of Maisy. The books are based on the Audio Visual Series.
Each book is based on a theme that carries over to the television show. On the left page is the text with the right page showing Maisy doing each task to prepare for bedtime.
Maisy has a toy panda that she likes to cuddle up with and the story starts with Maisy looking at the clock heading up the stairs with panda because they are sleepy and it is time for bed. Maisy wears a green jumper with a blue shirt.
Once Maisy is in her room she walks over to the window to draw the curtains, placing the panda on the windowsill. The owl is outside the window hooting, while we see the stars and the moon one last time before closing the curtains.
Maisy's Bedtime is a easy to follow format for any child to make part of their nightly routine. The similarities and routines for the mouse are the same for children of all ages. I think the only thing missing was going for the drink of water or milk like so many little ones do in stalling the inevitable bedtime.
The book has great vibrant colors that are the same as on the television show. Maisy has the pink ears and tail while Panda is black with the white tummy and face.
It would also be nice to have cassette tapes to go with the books so we could sing the Maisy song and hear the narrator's voice. Other than my two suggestions this is the perfect addition for the family library. Also the features of Maisy and the pictures are very easy to copy with my son drawing pictures of Maisy, plus we have the coloring book.

Summary: Maisy Gets Ready for Bed
Comment: If you are the parent of a young child, you probably know who Maisy is. She's a mouse with a duck, a squirrel, an elephant, and a crocodile for friends. Why the crocodile isn't trying to eat the others is beyond me, but that's life in Maisy's world.Both of my daughters love the Maisy books; there's something about their simple stories and colorful pictures that even appeals to adults. The books are short and easy to read. But, the stories are never obnoxiously simplistic, like so many other books for small children.
This is great to read at bedtime, esspecially if you can convince your child to pretend they are Maisy going to sleep. Maisy's preparing for bed and her preparations include a trip to the potty. The first time you see that page, it's actually kind of funny. This is one of my daughters' favorite Maisy books.
