I only recently discovered that Sylvia Plath even wrote children's books, and being a huge fan of hers, I had to have them. This book is absolutely adorable. I only wish I had had this book growing up. It makes me happy.

Might just be the best book I've read this year.
rachelleahdorn's review against another edition
My brother got this book as a present when he was a baby. We had the first edition (apparently) because the illustration on the cover has three kids snuggled under the covers and the first page illustration is a little different than the 198os version.
This is basically the best ever children's book. The illustrations are wonderful and bizarre. Apparently there is a version with Quentin Blake as the illustrator. His illustrations are also wonderful and bizarre but in an utterly different way.
A few years ago when I went looking for a copy of this book (because as the first sibling to have a kid, I got my brother's copy. Now that he has a kid I need to send this book on) and they were above $200. Now the prices are much lower (more people looking to sell them?) so you should make sure you get your kid (or your adult who like poetry and sleeping and whimsy) a copy.
