The Night Night BookThe Night Night Book by Marianne Richmond takes a tour around the home as the child is getting ready for bed.  Whimsical artwork and comforting scenes show kids it's time to say goodnight.  The ideal way to wrap up a day with your child, this book is an adorable bedtime story that helps kids and parents bid farewell to the day, settle in for the night, and rest up for a new tomorrow.

"Comfy bed,
all tucked in.
Cozy blanket,
toes to chin.

Night night sky.
Night night mnoon.
Dear tomorrow,
see you soon!"

This book is sure to attract all ages in children.  My 7 year old son loved reading the book. He liked the way the words rhymed, and also said the pictures were nice.  My two year old niece loved the book, and said again, so we could read it to her again.

The cover is cute.  I look forward to seeing more of Marianne's work.    5 out of 5 stars. I received the book from the publisher.

How important is getting a child to read? Very important! Study after study confirms this...as well as my mother and third grade teacher, who encouraged me to read all the time. I’m definitely a better person for it. Just ask my mom!

 BenBella Books Young Reviewers Circle is for your kids to review books.

Your child is invited to review a book!
Getting your kids to read has never been this easy — sign up your 8 - 14 year old for the BenBella Books Young Reviewers Circle, and they’ll receive:

     •    A special pre-release edition of the magical new children’s book, The Sword
          of Darrow

Why is BenBella Books inviting your child to join their Young Reviewers Circle? They want your young reader to share their thoughts about The Sword of Darrow and what they’d like to see in the sequel to make it even better than the first. We’re pretty sure it’s the first time ever that a national publisher has asked kids to help review and develop their books, so don’t miss out on this exclusive opportunity.

Happy reading!
