How Do Dinosaurs Say Goodnight? – Jane Yolen

by hatfield13

Bonnie Verberg, who had been my editor at Harcourt and then again when she moved to Scholastic, had a baby boy. When he was a year old she called and said, “My little boy hates going to bed at night and loves dinosaurs. Can you write something for him?” This rollicking little verse rolled out, got revised three times, then faxed off to Bonnie who by return fax bought it. “It’s perfect,” she said, then proceeded over two years to have me revise it some more. But when I saw the Mark Teague illustrations, with their sassy dinosaurs and at-the-end-of-their-rope parents, I knew he’d taken my little rhyme a giant step further on. Scholastic apparently thinks so, too. They gave it the cover of the catalog and first place there, made a poster and door hanger. MerryMakers have created an adorable T-rex plush toy with teddy bear and blankie for all lovers of this book. There are also dinosaur goodnight pjs for children 12 months up to 7 years.

This is the book of mine that has won the most honors: Book of the Month Club’s Best Picture Book of 2000, a Booklist Editor’s Choice, Time magazine pick as runner-up for best book for the “Inexhaustible Sprite” in the November 20, 2000 issue, one of School Library Journal’s Best Books 2000, awarded one of the nine Oppenheim Toy Portfolio Platinum Book Awards 2001 for preschool books, a Nick Jr. magazine choice as a best book for kids ages 3-5, an ABA Pick of the Lists, on the 2000 Capitol Choices – Noteworthy Books for Children list for Up to Seven, winner of a 2000 Christopher Medal, winner of a 2001 ABC Children’s Booksellers Choices Award, a nominee for the 2001-2002 Missouri Building Block Picture Book Award, one of the finalists for the 2001 BookSense Books of theYear, listed by the Texas Library Association on its list of 20 recommended books for children, age two to grade two (the 2×2 List), chosen as an American Library Association Notable Children’s Book 2001, on the New York Times Children’s Best Sellers List for five months, on Publishers Weekly Best Selling Picture Books for eight months, three starred reviews, on the Christian Science Monitor’s Children’s Best Sellers list (May 2001), WON the Gold Medal Florida Children’s Book Award 2001-2002, Honor Book for the Massachusetts Book Award 2001, one of the Wyoming’s 2001-2002 Buckeroo Award nominees, on the Tennessee 2002-2003 Volunteer State Book Award list, nominated for the 2002 Colorado Children’s Book Award, on the Nevada Young Readers Award list 2003, nominated for the 2003 Maryland Children’s Book Award, one of two books chosen for the National Center for Family Literacy’s first Annual Snuggletime. com Award, which is for a “thought-provoking new title that engages families in sharing literary traditions before bed.” It has also been chosen by the Abilene, Texas children as the 2001 Mockingbird Book Award winner. A 2000 Parents’ Choice® Approved winner.

It was chosen by the Abilene, Texas children as the 2001 Mockingbird Book Award winner.

It was #1 on the LA Times Children’s bestseller list.

It has Korean, Dutch, Chinese, Brazilian, French and Hebrew editions.

It’s on the education.com 50 Books Your Child Should Read Before Kindergarten list. (#22)

Scholastic Book Club has brought out two paperback editions, one in English, one in Spanish, as well as a tape (English only).

There is a delicious animated short video and I got to do the narration. It takes the book illustrations and extends it and does so wonderfully. There are girls as well as boys in this, and–of course–Teague’s astonishing dinosaurs. From Weston Woods/Scholastic.

There are now plush dinosaur toys, both adult and baby (adult shown here) based on Teague’s cover illustration. They are created by MerryMakers and widely marketed.

It was one of ALSC’s 2003 Notable Videos, recordings and Software.

What reviewers have said:

  • *STARRED REVIEW* “Huge, fanciful dinosaurs confront their parents at bedtime in this playful romp…. Verse and illustration are beautifully matched in these bedtime scenarios familiar to all parents of young children.” — Kirkus
  • *STARRED REVIEW* “The text is sweet and simple–just right for the wonderful pictures that really make this picture book special. Teague’s art takes dinosaurs out of their usual context and plops them into bed (a rather comical fit) for a sleepy-time tale with a difference. … By cleverly varying his perspectives, Teague adds dramatic punch to the pictures–readers watch from above as one behemoth baby whips its neck from side to side; they watch from below when another stamps its huge feet; and they’re face to face with one snoozing T-rex hugging its teddy bear close. Alert lookers will notice the dino’s name incorporated somewhere into each picture–pteranodon is neatly spelled out in blocks on the floor. A delight from start to finish; better buy more than one.” — Booklist
  • “Set to a lilting bedtime beat, this rollicking rumpus of a tale ups the humor ante in a familiar scenario by substituting dinosaurs for children … This rib-tickling bedtime fare packs plenty of appeal.” — Publishers Weekly
  • *STARRED REVIEW* “Yolen’s always wonderful choice of words is perfectly complemented by Teague’s colorful and familiar acrylic illustrations. The danger with Dinosaurs is that pajama clad children will want to hear the story over and over and over…until Mom and Dad fall asleep. ” — Five Owls
  • “… the book is also an educational treasure hunt for kids just learning which dinososaur is which. And since it’s all about hitting the sack, “How Do Dinosaurs Say Good Night?” makes a perfect bedtime book for the Brontasaurus entranced child. — New York Times Book Review
  • “Children will love the fact that the dinos tower over tiny parents, and that some of the prehistoric characters thrash, fuss, and misbehave as much as any I’m-not-ready-for-bed-yet kid. Real dinosaur aficiaonados will be pleased that the illustrations focus on the actual features of each beast, and that somewhere in each picture is correct name of the gigantic sleepyhead.” — The Christian Science Monitor
  • *STARRED REVIEW* “If bedtime is a battle (or even a half battle) at your house, here’s a book to help you and your wee ones settle down and get a chuckle out of the ordeal. Yolen’s hilarious rhyming text pairs perfectly with Teague’s ever-imaginative illustrations, resulting in a bedtime story that is both saucy and sweet–and oh so true. Highly recommended.” — FamilyClick.com
  • “While adults may initially question these lumbering behemoths as suitable bedtime-story fare, Teague has miraculously contrived to render Allosaurus, Tyrannosaurus Rex, and eight other creatures of their ilk irresistibly cuddly. Yolen’s lilting, reassuring verse cries out for repetition, so grown-up readers should brace themselves for countless requests to “Read it again.” ” — Parents’ Choice
  • From a review of the video: “Jane Yolen’s fantasy bedtime poem (Scholastic, 2000) about how dinosaurs behave when getting ready to go to bed is even more delightful as a video than as a book. … The color and animation are absolutely superb and capture perfectly the intense colors of Mark Teague’s original illustrations. … While it can be used as a teaching tool on proper bedtime behavior and attitudes, children will simply relate to the humorous, childlike behavior of the various dinosaurs. How Do Dinosaurs Say Good Night? will become a family and classroom classic. ” — School Library Journal

Tale of dinosaur sleep READ at night

Mom put Yasha to bed:
— Good night, my dear. Pleasant dreams.
“And you too, mommy,” thought Yasha, but only said aloud:
“Agu,” and fell asleep.
And at night a dinosaur came to him. He quietly crept up to his bed, stood on tiptoe and looked at the sleeping man. Mom and dad slept soundly, but Yasha opened his eyes:
- Who are you? he asked the dinosaur, in his infant tongue.
- I am a dinosaur from the fabulous land of Dinosaurs. If you want, I'll take you there!
- I want it, - said Yasha. He held out a pen to the dinosaur, but a silvery cloud immediately picked him up.

Beloved teddy bear was left lying downstairs in the crib. Yasha held out his hands to him. But the dinosaur said:
- Leave him alone. Let him sleep. And then he will tell about everything to mom and dad.
Then Yasha waved his hand to the little bear and after the dinosaur flew higher and higher and higher... When the familiar house and street remained far below, the dinosaur turned to Yasha and said:
— Hold on tight!

Yasha, with all his strength, grabbed a silver cloud, and they rushed so fast that everything around flickered.

A little time passed, and the cloud slowed down. And then it stopped completely and began to slowly decline.

Below lies the fabulous land of the Dinosaur. Gigantic trees with multi-colored leaves and the same multi-colored fruits grew around them. Chocolate rivers flowed between the trees, and houses stood on the slopes of low hills. Dinosaurs lived here.
Noticing Yasha on a cloud, they all went out to meet him, bowed and blew soap bubbles. There were dinosaur moms, dinosaur dads with dinosaur babies, dinosaur dogs, and even dinosaur birds.

A cloud with Yasha flew up to one graceful fountain from which a sweet milky stream was beating. Yasha was so happy that he almost fell into it, but two dinosaur birds immediately flew up to him, and picked him up on their multi-colored wings, and returned him back to the cloud.

There was a large sandy area behind one of the hills. There was everything here - buckets, scoops, rakes and dinosaur pastilles. The cloud carefully lowered Yasha into the sandbox, and he enthusiastically began to dig in the sand and build sandcastles.

When he had completely played enough, the cloud picked him up again and carried him further, past multi-colored baby baths with foam and dinosaur ducks. Flying up to one of the baths, a cloud descended right to the very water, and Yasha began to collect whole mountains of soap bubbles, and burst them, and even eat them. They tasted very much like milk.

When Yasha was swimming to his heart's content, two dinosaur birds wrapped him in a dinosaur towel, and a cloud again carried him along the valleys of Dinosauria. Ahead were mountains of dinosaur pyramids, and pleasant, very kind music flowed from musical dinosaur toys. Something like a mother's song. Yasha yawned.
Out of nowhere, a dinosaur appeared, which called him to this wonderful country:
— It's time for us to return. Otherwise, what good, your bear will wake up and complain to his parents ...
But Yasha didn't hear this anymore. He slept sweetly, gently swaying on a soft silver cloud.

I'm lucky!

Author Maxim Krongauz

The greeting formula that spread with the appearance of the night air in the 1990s on radio and television and became common in everyday speech, including on the Internet.

"The music played, and Natalya, turning to one of the cameras, said: - Good night! The program "Night: Conversation" is on the air.

Tatyana Solomatina. "My Odessa language"

“And Gordon was either on the record, or he didn’t hear the previous message, but said literally the following: “Good night. When asked why dinosaurs became extinct, every sixth grader knows the answer - a meteorite fell on them.

From an article by Irina Petrovskaya in the Izvestia newspaper

The appearance of the night air on television and radio posed a fundamental question for journalists: "How to greet viewers and listeners, including those who called the studio?" Oddly enough, there was no such special greeting, at least not generally accepted - simply because at night people rarely say hello and say goodbye much more often. By analogy with greetings Good morning! , Good afternoon! and Good evening! was the form Good night! , but it sounded strange (although it was very rare):

« Gawker. Ah... Daniel... Good evening. Actually, good night.
Daniel. Hello. And what are you doing here?
Gawker. Chained to a bench.

Alexander Obraztsov. "Magnetic fields"

The strangeness is most likely due to the fact that for the words morning , day and evening the nominative case coincides with the accusative and in the formula like Good morning! , a kind of case indeterminacy arises, as a result of which it is perceived as "non-case". For the word night , since it is feminine, we are forced to choose between nominative and accusative adjectives, which is unusual.

In this situation, preference was given to the genitive case denoting a wish with the omitted verb wish , which, however, materializes in the phrase (on-) wish good night . The problem is that for almost two centuries, the wish has gravitated towards farewell. And indeed, a stable farewell formula Good night! (along with the more common formula Good night! ) has existed in Russian for at least two centuries (according to corpora):

“No, enough for today! The concert is over! Good night, dear Muscovites! Volodya waved his hands. "Let's go to bed."

Vladimir Vysotsky. Girls' Romance

“Excuse me, dear midshipman,” the lieutenant finally took pity, “no matter how pleasant it is for me to talk with you, but I must also serve. Good night! You have to walk across the deck, the sailor girl always flies out on deck, awake, dressed out of shape!”

Leonid Sobolev. "Overhaul"

“Modest Ivanovich kissed his wife on the forehead, saying: “Good night, my soul,” and retired to his rooms.”

Zinaida Gippius. "No talisman"

“- Farewell. .. Good night, my dear!
“Farewell to you too, Nejdanov!”

Ivan Turgenev. "Nov"

These examples show, in particular, that the formula Good night! could mean both a wish for a good sleep, and just a goodbye at night (as in Sobolev and Turgenev). However, in the 21st century, the function of greeting becomes more important and slowly replaces the function of farewell. However, everything is not so simple, and this is why speech etiquette is interesting. First, expression Good night! is rare, but still used as a greeting before. And this reflects some instability (or multifunctionality) of wishes:

“And suddenly his hand trembled: a tall, thin old man in blue overalls appeared from the ground, stood in front of them and stared at them motionless.
"Good night," said Zybin somewhat dazedly.
“Good, good evening,” the old man answered benevolently, “what kind of night is it now?”

Yuri Dombrovsky. "Faculty of unnecessary things"

"Good night, Yuri Pavlovich! Already on duty?"

Grigory Adamov. Mystery of Two Oceans

Secondly, the nominative case of this expression was also common - and precisely in the function of farewell, but only in the first half of the 19th century, when it competed with the genitive:

"So, it's all over... <...> Good night, friend... and the priests will sing eternal memory to us."

Mikhail Lermontov. "Menschen und Leidenschaften"

"The corporal finished his portion, got up, straightened up again, saluted in a military manner and, saying: "Good night to your honor!", wandered into his room.

Orest Somov. Tales of Treasures

Who is annoying

Despite the fact that this formula has become fixed in the Russian language as a farewell, it still causes irritation among the bearers of the old speech etiquette.
