PreS-K–Interactive prompts will help little ones settle down in this bedtime board book. Each spread shows an illustrated animal sleeping, with accompanying text encouraging meditation. “You’re a drowsy meerkat, nestled in a furry pile. Huddle with your family and dream a little while.” The book ends with the prompt returning to a human child, and will hopefully make bedtime an easier transition for caregivers.
VERDICT With an emphasis on the actions children can take to get sleepy, this is a useful book for the shelves, and a purchase anywhere bedtime books are popular.
