I wish I had had books like this to read to my children - 40 years ago.
In fact, I wish I had had books like this read to me when I was a young child - 60 years ago!
Never mind, I will enjoy reading it to any young family member when the are ready for bed and settling down to sleep.
The pictures are gorgeous, lovely vibrant colours, with lots of animals to attract attention and discuss with enquiring minds. The words are calming, soothing, relaxing - just what is needed when winding down from a busy day and drifting off to sleep. Saying ‘goodnight’ to each of the animals in their various environments is a lovely way to end the day and promote calm, restful, sleep for both the young child and the reader.
The introduction to the book says it all - this book will sow the seeds of mindfulness and stress relief at an early age and the benefits may last a lifetime.
