The Goodnight Book for Moms and Little Ones
Liberally illustrated with vintage artwork from the likes of Margaret Evans Price and Maxfield Parrish, this 6.5-inchsquare book offers stories, activities, poems, prayers, and more, all tailored to getting ready for bed. The strength of the collection is in its breadth: Anansi stories join Greek and Hindu myths; Paul Simon and Henry Mancini songs rub shoulders with traditional lullabies; and prayers (from many traditions) mix with star charts and cookie recipes. For those not already beholden to nightly rituals, Wong and Tabori offer much choose from--bedtime need never be the same twice. All ages. (Aug.)
