Amy Parker and Virginia Allyn have
done it again: created a a medium-sized, puffy-covered board book that is sure
to delight infants and toddlers who are already fans or are new readers of
their books.
“Night Night, Train” was my
favorite, but this new book “Night Night, Sleepytown” might take its place! I
love that it picks up right where “Night Night, Train” left off (with the
puppies waking up on the train and the toy train!) but readers who haven’t read
the prequel won’t lose anything.
The rhymes, colored text, and
vibrant pictures always make for fun reading experiences. The story is about
the people of Sleepytown and how they help each other. This book teaches
gratitude: each page mentions an integral person of the town (farmer, teacher, firefighter,
etc.), and the readers thank each for what they do.
There is only one direct mention of
God, but each page teaches gratitude, and I like how the last page features a
church. The mice that appear here and there throughout the book are always fun
to watch too! Fun for wee readers.
I recommend this book to others.
The
publisher has provided me with a complimentary copy of this book through
BookSneeze®. I was not required to write a positive review.
