Amazon.com

Margaret Wise Brown and Clement Hurd's bestselling children's book headlines this winning 25-minute collection of sleepytime tales from HBO. Susan Sarandon narrates the simple story of a bunny readying for bed. Other top entertainers lend their voices to the tape: Tony Bennett sings the story of "Hit the Road to Dreamland"; Lauryn Hill brings rhythm to "Hush, Little Baby" (the best segment); Billy Crystal lends many voices to Mercer Mayer's "There's a Nightmare in My Closet"; and singers Natalie Cole, Aaron Neville, and Patti LeBelle sing other tales. A dandy video for the youngster, punctuated with "interviews" of real kids answering a host of bedtime questions. --Doug Thomas

GREAT story!!.......2007-06-29

I first saw this on HBO and my son already had the book. He loved it so much I had to buy the DVD. He follows the story along with his book and laughs at the childrens stories.
I would not recommend this for children younger than 2-2 1/2. It has commentaries by other children whos ages range from 5 to maybe 8 and keeping their attention may be hard.
2 thumbs up!

My son is obsessed with this..........2007-06-14

My son is completely obsessed with Goodnight Moon. He even knows the names of the author & illustrator. Needless to say, he's even more completely obsessed with this video. It's really well put together & has great cameo voiceovers. It really brings these classics to life. Worth the buy.

Good night Moon ............2007-05-07

This item arrived in MINT condition and very timely. The vendor was honest and accurate with the description of the product. I am very pleased and satisfied. I will use the vendor again. God Bless You.

Kid videos.......2007-03-27

A must have. Goodnight moon is a classic. I think I like it as much as the kids do.
The animation is kinda lame but functional and artistic in its' own way.

The Greatest.......2007-03-09

I was extremly impressed with this DVD. It is not only educational but extremely enjoyable while making you feel many different emotions. It was wonderful to see so many different reactions from children and how they express themselves. This DVD is not only for children!!! I recomend this DVD for all ages and from all different walks of life. Everyone will relate.

Somewhere into the so-so "Itsy Bitsy Spider" segment, the sinking feeling that Kids' Favorite Songs 2 is strictly sequel material sets in. This is a march down Sesame Street on a slow day, when the loopy monster misunderstandings and goofball gags miss a rare beat or two. Still, making merry is what the Sesame crew does best, and they succeed here, if on a less brilliant level than we've come to expect. All the usual favorites, like "If You're Happy and You Know It" and "The Ants Go Marching," get the gang and their real-life kid friends grooving, and a running joke involving a renegade meatball keeps kids 18 months to 5 tuned in to the end. Elmo hosts. --Tammy La Gorce

My Daughter's favorite!.......2007-03-23

I cam across this VHS at a yard sale, and thought my daughter would like it. This has become her absolute favorite now and even prefers it over Barney!(which is hard to top). She is almost 2 and knows every song and will follow along with the dancing and singing, and she is shy when it comes to people watching her dance, so we very rarely get to see this side of her. Everyone in our family knows this tape word for word, and have recently added The first Kids' Favorite Songs to our collection, and is also already becoming a hit! Highly recommended.

My kid is ok with it but prefers Kids Favorite Songs.......2007-03-08

When we got Kids Favorite Songs my 18 month old wanted to watch it over and over and over and though he doesn't talk yet he could easily hum most of the songs and we felt we had to get Kids Favorite songs 2 but he isn't as enthusiastic about it as the first. It's a little advanced for his age maybe he will grow into it but for younger kids the first definitely much better and easier to sing along too.

Kids' Favorite Songs 2 Review.......2007-01-11

We have both part 1 and part 2. Part 2 has too much talk and not enough singing. Our toddler looses attention quickly while watching this.

You & your kids will ENJOY.......2007-01-04

My son was introduced to Elmo at daycare & loved KFS2,so I bought it. It was a great buy my husband & I both love it, we sing the songs, know the entire DVD,by heart. My son was 17 months at the time. He recites alot of the DVD. I strongly recommend this DVD. No regrets!!!

toddlers love it.......2007-01-04

Purchased this video for my granddaughter at about 18 months because she watches SESAME STREET frequently and loves to sing along with the characters. She loves it and has learned all of the songs on the video. Would think that most toddlers would enjoy this.

Description

The Doris Day Collection features six new-to-DVD titles -- Young Man With a Horn, Lullaby of Broadway, Love Me or Leave Me, Billy Rose's "Jumbo", Please Don't Eat the Daisies, The Glass Bottom Boat -- along with two of Ms. Day's all-time favorite musicals, Calamity Jane and Pajama Game which have been repackaged for the Collection. All DVDs are packed with bonus features including vintage shorts and featurettes, cartoons, trailers and more.

Young Man with a Horn (1950)
With a second-hand trumpet and the loving guidance of a brilliant bluesman, a lonely boy grows into manhood as a superb musician whose talent carries him from honky-tonks to posh supper clubs. But his desperate search for the elusive high note, trapped in his mind but impossible to play, starts him on a boozy downward slide. Charged with dynamic performances by Kirk Douglas (the title role), Doris Day, Lauren Bacall and Hoagy Carmichael and pitch-perfect direction by Michael Curtiz, the film is a feast of hot, cool, moody jazz. Legendary Harry James dubbed Douglas' horn work.

Lullaby of Broadway (1951)
Day danced divinely and sang in this musical delight about a singer newly arrived in New York and destined for Great White Way fame in the capable company of co-stars Gene Nelson, S.Z. Sakall, Billy DeWolfe, Gladys George and Florence Bates. Highlights are the inclusion of the OscarR -winning title tune, Cole Porter's "Just One of Those Things", "Somebody Loves Me" and six more songs.

Love Me or Leave Me (1955)
Laced with Doris Day's vibrant performances of songs from the era, this 1955 Academy AwardR winner (Best Motion Picture Story) is the tough-minded true tale of Ruth Etting's life with the man who boosted her career with strong-arm tactics yet smothered her in an obsessive grip she escaped at great peril. As Martin "The Gimp" Snyder, James Cagney earned one of the film's six OscarR nominations. Ms. Day's Etting was a career-best dramatic performance, bringing acclaim from critics and protest letters from fans unprepared for the departure from her traditionally sunny roles. DVD special features include: Soundtrack remastered in Dolby Digital 5.1, Three vintage shorts, the first two with Ruth Etting (A Modern Cinderella, Roseland, A Salute to the Theatres)

Billy Rose's Jumbo (1962)
Radiant Doris Day sings beloved Rodgers and Hart tunes and does her own horseback riding tricks in this razzle-dazzle musical based on Billy Rose's stage spectacular and featuring circus sequences directed by Busby Berkeley. The story revolves around a circus owner (Jimmy Durante, star of the 1935 Broadway original) with only two real attractions: his daughter (Day) and popular pachyderm Jumbo. Three-ring pandemonium breaks out when a handsome rival (Stephen Boyd) infiltrates the circus, and father, daughter and Dad's wisecracking fiancie (Martha Raye) are suddenly at risk of losing the greatest show on earth. o DVD Special Features include: Soundtrack remastered in Dolby Digital 5.1, Musical short Yours Sincerely, Tom and Jerry cartoon Jerry and Jumbo, Original overture rejoined to the film for the first time in more than 40 years.

Please Don't Eat the Daisies (1962)
o Ms. Day brings her trademark radiance to this jovial comedy from the bestseller by playwright Jean Kerr. With Janis Paige, Spring Byington and Richard Haydn on hand for snappy comic support, Please Don't Eat the Daisies is breezy family fun with popular songs "Please Don't Eat the Daisies" and "Anyway the Wind Blows."

The Glass Bottom Boat (1966)
Doris Day entered her eighth consecutive year as a Top-10 Box-Office Star when she boarded The Glass Bottom Boat, a blending of romantic comedy and the era's burgeoning spy-movie genre. Frank Tashlin directs with a cartoonist's sensibility, embracing everything from spy guises to push-button chaos in a futuristic kitchen. The film also stars top comedians Arthur Godfrey, Paul Lynde, Edward Andrews, John McGiver, Dom DeLuise and Dick Martin. o DVD special features include: Three vintage featurettes (Catalina Island, Every Girl's Dream, NASA), Oscar-winning cartoon The Dot and the Line.

Customer Reviews:

Great Set.......2007-03-23

Doris Day is great. I have always been a fan of hers. The movies in this set give us a good representation of her dramatic and comedic skills as an actress. This set would be a good gift to give to someone who loves the classics and musicals.

A Doris Day Attitude.......2006-11-10

Who doesn't like Doris Day? She's perky and cute and you can't keep from smiling when you watch her movies. We enjoy this collection, although some of the shows are better than others. A great keepsake for fans!

Great Tribute to A Great Star: Doris Day.......2006-08-20

If you are too young to have sat in one of those grand movie palaces and watched Doris Day grace the screen, you don't know what you missed. She lit up the screen and made millions fall in love with her.

I loved the extras for "Love Me or Leave Me" with Doris and James Cagney on the set waiting for the director to call "action!" They showed it from the standpoint of the camera and crew in the dark with the lights blazing, ready to shoot.

The inclusion of the song especially written for "The Pajama Game," "The Man Who Invented Love," was a special treat. We, her fans, had heard of the song, but had no idea that they had actually filmed the scene, which was eventually cut and shelved. It had been sitting in the vaults for over 40 years and then some brilliant researcher found it and included it as a DVD extra. Thank you!

Doris has made so many great films, she needs a couple more boxes on the market. Until then, I'll cherish this one. For all of the Day fanatics, it has been a great year with the release of all this Day material. Please, bring us more!

NOT THE GREATEST BOX SET!.......2006-05-02

I'm not a big Doris Day fan, but I thought I give the set a shot. Thought Love Me or Leave Me was excellent, Calamity Jane was very good and even Lullaby of Broadway and Young Man with a Horn weren't bad, but the rest were sickenly sweet. I thought Jumbo and The Pajama Game would NEVER end. Even Jimmy Durante couldn't save Jumbo! And The Glass Bottom Boat wasn't even worthy of the Three Stooges. The good news was I was able to sell 5 of the movies on Amazon, kept three and even made a profit by selling them individually so the box set didn't cost me anything and I made a few bucks on Doris too!

doris day is here.......2006-02-22

after way to long we get the doris day collection and it's great.a nice cross section of her films all looking great and as good as ever. if you love doris day then this is what you want.

Doris Day in a high-stepping musical feast!.......2005-04-02

C'mon along and join Doris Day and a top supporting cast in a high-stepping musical feast - the infectious LULLABY OF BROADWAY!

Melinda Howard (Doris Day) a young up-and-coming musical star, has just arrived back in New York, totally unaware that her mother Jessica (Gladys George), once the biggest star on Broadway, is now singing in a dingy tavern. The mansion which Jessica used to own has now been taken over by a rich brewery magnate and his wife (S.Z. Sakall and Florence Bates).

Old-time vaudevilians Lefty and Gloria (Billy DeWolfe and Anne Triola), now the butler and maid of the house, take Melinda under their wing and uphold the ruse that Jessica is just 'out of town'...

Complications arise when Melinda finds herself on the cusp of Broadway fame, just as Jessica's cover is blown! Gene Nelson co-stars as the brash and confident dancer who falls in love with Melinda.

Doris Day as usual gives her all in the lead role. Gladys George was a perfect casting choice for Melinda's washed-up alcoholic mother and Florence Bates is fun in one of her trademark 'society matron' roles. Billy DeWolfe, S.Z. Sakall and Gene Nelson would go on to co-star with Doris Day again in the successful TEA FOR TWO (both movies were made and released in the same year and were big box office drawcards for Warners).

A top Hollywood musical.

Watching this is beginning to be a habit with me!!.......2004-12-29

Doris Day is my all time favorite
actress.
Her wonderful dancing, her beautiful voice, and her spectacular acting talent!
This movie is about Melinda Howard (Day) she is coming over on a boat to New York to suprise her mother who is supposed to be famous on broadway and who she hasn't seen in years. On the boat, she meets Tom Farnam who starts playing up the minute he sees her. But she gives him the brush off.
So, she forgets about him, and arrives in New York.
However when she comes to the fancy house that her mother puts on all her letters, she is suprised to find a strange man (Cuddles) and his wife living there. And the butler sure is suprised when she comes bursting in asking for her mother!
But suddenly, the butler (Billy Dewolfe), realizes who the girl is. Because you see, the butler Lefty, is a friend of her mother, who WAS famous on broadway,but really, now, is tough on luck, and sings at a bar! Both her and Lefty, have done everythong in there power to keep this news from Melinda, and our doing a swell job of it.
They merely tell her that she has rented the house, and is on tour. Which she believes.
So, she decides to wait. After all, she says, I haven't saved up all this money to come to just leave!
So she waits.
And who enters the picture again? Tom Farnam (Gene Nelson).
And soon he and Day fall in love.
But not without troubles, which I will not spoil for you!
This movie includes wonderful dance sequences by Day and Nelson.
Also splendid songs. Overall, this is a wonderful movie, and I recommend it highly!!

The penny says, "In God We Trust"........2004-06-02

She's a singer and a tap-dancer. Doris Day does it all. She is an entertainer aboard a cruise ship. She's come back to the United States to visit her mother. Her mother is also a singer, but in a nightclub. What Doris does not know, her mother no longer has the New York house and she is no longer a well-known Broadway star. She is too ashamed to see her daughter the way her life has turned. Very nice musical! Tunes include: "Lullaby of Broadway", "In a Shanty In Old Shanty Town", "Zing! Went the Strings of My Heart", "Somebody Loves Me", "I Love The Way You Say Goodnight".
Also in the cast: Billy DeWolfe (one of Doris' closest friends), Gladys George, Florence Bates and Anne Triola.
Best line: Doris gives Gene Nelson a gift. She says that there is a message on there for you. It's a 1949 penny that says atop, "In God We Trust".
Awesome mechanical dolls number.

Come On A long and Listen To The Best Musical Of All Time.......2004-04-28

Doris Day and Gene Nelson star in this classic movie! Doris Day is going to New York from Londan England. Doris is going home from England thinking that she is going to be metting his mother but she then learns that her mother has been lying and she is not a famous singing but a singer at a local Night Club! This also stars Cuddles as the sweet man who tries to cheer Miss Day up by buying her a nice mink stole and a lot of other nice stuff! This movie will keep you in stitches! But then Cuddles wife finds out and gets really mad at her! This is a hilarious and a very funny movie! You will always enjoy this movie!

Broadway Smash.......2002-05-13

I've watched this Musical so many times and still get a great joy in watching it, it's so breath-taking with the songs, dance's and story line. I've just bought this video, and I would recommend it to anyone. Doris Day is my favourite actress of all time, and she teams well with Gene Nelson (who is a fantastic dancer).

This award-winning series entertains babies with colorful images, and toddlers through first-graders with familiar situations and concerns. This installment features lullabies designed for naptime, your too-tired-to-read-aloud nights, or those times when the kids just need to calm down. Accompanying the songs are kid-style music videos featuring such whimsical fantasies as rocking grandmas floating in mid-air, kids playing with their favorite stuffed animal suddenly grown life-size, and teddy bears in formal wear waltzing the afternoon away. Sleep-deprived parents will appreciate the frazzled couple playing bed merry-go-round with their two young ones in "Sleep On." In case you're worried about exposing your own children to this worst-case scenario, an alternative universe is presented in "I Sleep Till the Morning (I do not wake too soon)." Just keep playing that one over and over and over and maybe it will take. --Kimberly Heinrichs

Triplet Mom's LIFESAVER.......2007-06-03

Ok, to begin with I had no idea who Hap was. I just knew that I didn't want my triplets hooked on broadcast TV stuff that was full of marketing, commercials, etc. So we ordered BabyFirstTV (kinda like HBO for babies) and during the programming they would show these videos. It didn't take long for me to notice that my kids were MESMERIZED by Palmer's music videos. I quickly recognized the prints and hairstyles from my own childhood (80's kid) and went on a search until I found the DVD's here. The kids LOVED them and now that they are almost two they actually ask for them by name. I would HIGHLY recommend these DVD's to anyone who is interested in exposing their children to music, rhyming, social skills, development skills, sillyness and laughter via your DVD player. I am not saying they take the place of actual experiences but they sure do enhance them. You don't know how handy it is to get your triplet toddlers to quickly cooperate and follow instructions by just singing a simple song to them. Anyway, long story short.... WE LOVE HAP PALMER AND THESE DVDs!

Very Bad.......2006-11-20

Strange, scary, and not musical at all. The images are scary - grandmas flying through the air - baby cribs under water surrounded by giant fish looking like they'll eat the babies. Music/songs are completely un-tuneful and instantly forgetful. Images have little if anything to do with the songs. I want my money back on this one.

Sort of scary..........2006-02-12

My 8 year old daughter and I found parts of this movie somewhat freaky (although the two year old did fine). The song called "Lovey" depicts stuffed animals suddenly becoming life-sized during the day. The final vignette made my 8 year old cover her eyes - it depicts a scary looking puppet/dummy (as if in an old horror show or twilight zone, like a ventriloquist would use) that suddenly opens it HUGE eyes, flies around the room (bed and all), and opens up the window. We did NOT find this movie restful, although we like the other BabySongs videos...

Very Relaxing!.......2005-02-24

My 18 month old loves to drift off to sleep while watching this video. It is relaxing for the entire family, which helps my son fall asleep easily. I am going to get the CD version to play in his room at night. (I don't believe it's available at Amazon, but if you search it, other links come up for Hap Palmer CD's) We are big fans of all the Baby Songs videos and CD's so far. My son loves to dance to them and is even starting to sing with them.

Very Relaxing Video.......2003-03-15

We have 17 month old twins that like to watch a video at night while they drink their milk. They love the Brainy Baby and Baby Einstein series but we get tired of playing the same videos over and over. We were pleasantly surprised to find our daughter had fallen asleep to the video four nights in a row! She is always the one to fight sleep. The video is very different from what we expected but enjoyable and relaxing. I would recommend this video as a good one to wind your child down at night.

Stiff acting, no chemistry, not an interesting story for me C-/D+.......2006-03-23

This is the 2nd Harlequin romance turned tv movie I watched. (The first being A Matter of Marriage which I also reviewed) I originally had no interest in the plot when I read it. I only watched Broken Lullaby because the dvd was available in my library and I wanted to see what Harlequin TV movie was like since I bought Diamond Girl and So Hard to Forget (which I am still waiting for and will review as soon as I watch it.) POSSIBLE SPOILERS First off I thought the heroine was a little too hard looking for me. She had a tough girl/strong woman. The hero was definitely good loooking and charming however I didn't feel any romantic chemistry between the two. It just seemed a little forced. I guess the characters in A Matter of Marriage had more of a chemistry (even though I didn't think so at first) than Broken Lullaby. The pacing once again was fast/not boring which was great. I had no problems there. Otherwise, I am STILL glad I watched this movie because I love/used to love Harlequin romance novels when I was a kid. So when my other two dvds arrive, I'll definitely (Id better!) be blown away. As usual, will review Diamond Girl and So Hard to Forget as soon as it comes.

Make sure this is the "Broken Lullaby" you really want!.......2005-01-11

The original "Broken Lullaby" was produced in 1932 and is a story of redemption and forgiveness through love (in my opinion). It is one of the most powerful anti-war movie you will ever experience and is a must-see for all serious movie-goers.

NOW THIS IS A ROMANCE .......2004-12-04

An elderly lady is seeking her roots. She remembers an orphanage and has a picture with a Fabrege egg mounted on a music box.

Ah, the tracking down of picture has stirred up some very interested parties.
One is the grandson of a deposed Arch Duchess -- A Count who wants to retain his title - and the villian of the whole plot.

The niece of the American lady is being pursued by a shadowy figure who is leaving a string of bodies behind.

We are lead to the inevitable bed scene which did not add to the story - how can people who do not really know each other hop into bed? And this leads to love??? Yeah! right!

Their trail lead to some interesting discoveries which told the tale [grin] - nicely paced - decent interest without being gory.

Lullaby & Goodnight portrays bedtime as it should be: a time of togetherness, soothing rituals, and song. A multiethnic group of mothers, Walter the radio (Tim Conway), Rosebud the talking flower (Caroline Rhea), and a host of animated friends create an ideal bedtime routine for several children. Songs like "This Is the Way We Wash" and "Pajamas" accompany footage of the children getting ready for bed. Animated segments include story time with "Winken, Blinken, and Nod" and favorite lullabies like "Toora, Loora, Loora" and "Brahms's Lullaby." Mommy and Me cofounder Dr. Cindy Nurik follows the presentation with advice about establishing bedtime routines. While this series will not put a child to sleep, it offers a nice selection of lullabies, poems, and stories appropriate for bedtime. (Intended for children ages birth to 5 years old and their parents.) --Tami Horiuchi

He enjoys all the songs and images. We have him brush his teeth to the toothbrushing part, and he is learning to sing along with the lullabies. I wouldn't consider that this video is supposed to PUT HIM TO SLEEP, but it does put him in a bedtime frame of mind, and I use the lullabies ("Pretty Little Horses" is his favorite) when I do rock him to sleep after we watch.

I myself think it's sweet. Yeah, some parts are a bit over the top (e.g. Rosebud is quite annoying). The black mom and the curly haired mom aren't THAT over the top compared to what's seen in many other children's videos--I think they're both sweet and it's obvious they enjoy being with their kids. The other mom (older, short haired mom of 2) is a little strange--she is so sedate compared to the other two moms, and she LOOKS and SOUNDS like an exhausted mom of a relatively new baby, LOL! Don't know why they didn't let her sing her own lullaby as the other 2 moms did--when she gets to sing a few snatches she has quite a nice voice.

The only part I really don't like is the cartoon "snoring" sequence, LOL! And I would agree that if you're trying to get your child in a quiet mood, Rosebud yelling "Camptown Races" could DEFINITELY break the spell.

One strange thing--the song subtitles are triggered by the "ANGLE" feature on my DVD, not the "SUBTITLE" feature! I've never had that happen before!

Overall, my little one requests the "lullaby show" and he and I both like it! It creates a nice little bedtime routine--wash, toothbrush, story, lullabies--and shows nice, happy interactions between moms and their obviously loved little ones.

I never thought of "You Are So Beautiful to Me" as a lullaby or a love song to a child--but it is perfect and I sing it to my little one now.

Creepy and annoying!.......2003-06-06

My daughter, who just turned two, has never liked this DVD, and neither do I. It scares her-especially the creepy flower played by Caroline Rhea. The moms are annoying, the songs are unimaginative, and it just drags on and on. The worst part is that, everytime the DVD almost succeeds in putting a child to sleep, it screams them back to consciousness! It does this twice, after nice, quiet parts: my least favorite is after the singing of the lullabies, when Caroline Rhea suddenly starts screaming out "CAMPTOWN RACETRACK FIVE MILES LONG, DOO DAH, DOO DAH"!

Homestly, don't waste your money, especially if you're wanting to use it at bedtime. It's annoying, ineffective, and just downright "weird", for lack of a better word!

13 month old twins are learning to brush their teeth!.......2003-01-30

My boy/girl 13 month old toddlers find this show fascinating. They are learning to brush their teeth and wash their face before bed. They listen to the story and love the music. Best of all, they are ready for bed when we are through!

Don't waste your money............2002-12-03

Terrible DVD. Child has no interest. Wish I had not wasted my money....
