My Favorite Bedtime books
A Book of Sleep by Il Sung Na
Short but sweet with beautiful pictures.
Goodnight Moon by Margaret Wise Brown
A classic in the bed time book realm, but for a reason.
Global Babies by the Global Fund for Children
My daughter’s favorite book. She loved looking at all the other babies.
The Going-to-Bed Book by Sandra Boynton
My son’s favorite book. We had this one memorized. Still do.
Dream Animals: A Bedtime Journey by Emily Martin
A magical book of dream land and the animals who will take you there.
The House in the Night by Susan Swanson
Beautiful pictures and perfect for younger babies with the contrasting black and white.
Wherever You Are: My Love Will Find You by Nancy Tillman
This one had me in tears the first time I read it. It is not short, but we still have it memorized. “My love is so high and so wide and so deep. It’s always right there, even when you’re asleep….”
My children loved these books to shreds. Literally, their covers were peeling apart. We had multiple Goodnight Moon books, and I recommend the other Global Babies books, too.
There are so many great books out there. Our family utilizes the library so much, especially now that they are older, but I really recommend buying these ones.
They’ll be fast family favorites!
