About Bedtime
Product Description Ease little ones into the get-ready-for-bed routine with this warm and cozy bedtime book. Aided by Mom and Dad, a sister and brother enjoy a little snack, relaxing baths, time for brushing teeth, stories, lullabies, back rubs, and hugs. Cheerful, soft illustrations and reassuring text set a tone that helps toddlers feel good about settling down to sleep. (As the narrator explains, “I do my best growing when I’m sleeping.”) In the morning, the children will yawn, stretch, and be a little bit bigger, a little bit stronger, and a little bit smarter—all because of a good night’s sleep. Includes tips for parents and caregivers. From School Library Journal PreS—These brightly colored board books are meant to help caregivers and small children manage the daily routines as well as the ups and downs of toddler life. One or two simple sentences explain each idea in a toddler-friendly manner, often describing why these actions can help them. For example, Bedtime explains that children take a bath before bed because "warm water helps me relax" and get ready for sleep. The first-person narrative is an ideal technique for communicating with small children who are developing a sense of themselves. The illustrations also are perfectly attuned to the smallest readers. Bold, black outlines and bright colors capture youngsters' attention. Heinlen also uses patterned fabrics to give the pictures rich textures that will engage children. The illustrations depict children and families from a variety of ethnic and racial backgrounds. The last two pages of each book provide helpful tips for caregivers. For example, Calm-Down Time advises adults to stay calm themselves while helping a frustrated toddler. Adults are also encouraged to seek help from pediatricians, parenting books, and child-development Web sites. Highly useful titles for preschool collections, especially where there is a demand for parenting materials.— Mary Landrum, Lexington Public Library, KY Copyright © Reed Business Information, a division of Reed Elsevier Inc.
