The Book of Bedtime: U.S

Paperback (CreateSpace Independent Publishing Platform Sept. 6, 2016)

Does your child sometimes struggle to get to sleep at night?

This story might help make the whole bedtime routine less stressful for both of you.

The Book of Bedtime is recommended for ages 3-6 and includes:

  • Rhyming text to be read aloud by a parent or caregiver at bedtime (allowing your child to lie down comfortably while they listen to your voice).
  • Full-page illustrations in calm, muted tones (so children can enjoy looking at the pictures if they are not yet ready to close their eyes).

The first half of the story:

  • Describes what leads up to Ollie, a young rabbit, being wide awake at bedtime.
  • Allows children to think for themselves about why they too might not feel sleepy.
  • Can be used to prompt further discussions about setting up a good bedtime routine.

The second half of the story:

  • Follows Ollie as his mother teaches him to quieten his mind, to relax, to slow down his breathing and to feel safe and calm.
  • Uses simple "bodyscan meditation" techniques and soothing words to encourage your child to concentrate on and relax different parts of their body one at a time.

We can't promise this bedtime story will send your little one straight off to sleep, but we hope it will help encourage them to calm down and relax at bedtime, so drifting off becomes more of a possibility.

This print book has US English spellings, but a British English edition is also available.
