Synopsis
  A sweet and funny picture book  “manual” to help children create a nighttime ritual, settle down to sleep, and catch their elusive Zzzs.
 
It’s bedtime!  But what if you don’t feel ready to go to sleep?  What can you do to catch your Zzzs?

Perfect for not-so-sleepyheads, this fun read-aloud shows kids simple steps (in delightful alphabetical order) to settle down, get ready for bed, and find their way to dreamland.

GOODNIGHT, GOODNIGHT: Sometimes, it’s as simple as a bath and a bedtime story. Sometimes it’s not! At some point, every parent or caregiver faces the dilemma of how to help a child learn to go to sleep. This relatable and charming take on what to do when a child’s “Zzzs go missing” offers a fun step-by-step approach to an age-old dilemma.
 
A DIFFERENT KIND OF BEDTIME BOOK: Sleep instruction guides, nursery rhymes, classic sleepytime children’s books—there are many bedtime books to choose from. But this is one that offers a rare mix of being fun to read and also truly helpful in guiding kids to establish a successful bedtime ritual.
