This is a lovely book and the illustration on the cover, as well as internally, is beautiful. I was hoping this would be helpful in getting my youngest daughter to sleep as she does resist most nights.
She loved the cover and was excited to read at bedtime. She enjoyed the pictures and the words were lovely and relaxing, easy to speak them calmly and quietly. There are mindfulness activities on each page and it was easy to incorporate these into the story without her realising what she was doing.
I thought the book was lovely and it was very relaxing but didn't get her to sleep much quicker but she did remain calmer and drifted off quickly after reading and settling down after we had finished the book.
I would recommend this as a lovely bedtime ritual before bed as it is a great way to introduce mindfulness to your children to help relax them after a busy day.
