Summary: A SOOTHING BEDTIME TALE
Comment: Granted, there are a plethora of bedtime stories available, but when someone asks for recommendations "Wind Says Good Night" is usually on my list.

Youngsters find much to enjoy as a chorus of frogs, moths, mockingbirds and crickets all whisper goodnight. The text has a comforting lilt, and the pastel drawings are both restful and amusing.

Summary: A beautifully entertaining story
Comment: A little girl can't go to sleep, so the wind asks what he could do to help. And that is the flow of the story ~~ as nighttime winds down to the soft sigh of the wind.

There is a magical quality to this book ~~ one that keeps me reading in delight. (If I have to read these books to my kids, it better be enjoyable for me too!) The pictures are beautifully illustrated. I am now a David Jorgensen fan. And I really enjoy Katy Rydell's writing in this book. It's very musical and lyrical ~~ whimiscal too. It's a delightful book for my children to hear before they go to bed. And the pictures are a joy to behold.

This is one purchase we won't regret buying!

Summary: My favorite, and my daughter's favorite, for over two years!
Comment: This is a wonderful book for bedtime. One of my favorite aspects is that the text can very easily be paraphrased if needed- the reader can skip over the repeated lines and go right to the answer: "I can't stop shining unless there's a change in the weather." Then when your child is a little older, you can read the entire book as written. "The child", by the way, is never referred to as a girl or a boy, which is nice, so that boys and girls will be able to identify. I'm not sure I agree with the reviewer who said that this child is "restless"- the child simply can't sleep because a bird is singing outside the window, and so the story begins. This beautiful book makes a great gift!
