This fit into the bedtime routine very nicely.

With some of the same babies in my kids' favorite board book, Baby Faces, this photograph-heavy picture book helps encourage bedtime rituals.

Nice read for small kids.

[Jenna Montgomery]

Short read for infants and toddlers showing close up photos of baby faces on each page. This style of book is recommended for little ones to see faces and recognize emotions.

This is a short nursery school aged book about going to sleep It is easy to read with in a metered beat. A children go through a bed time routine with pictures that depict the words being read. Each page has three to four words, short simple and to the point, keeping the childs interest. This is easy to add to any bed time routine. Pictures are realistic and colorfully eye catching. My children love this short story at bed time with its rhythmic and rhyming.

This would be one of my favorites in this series. Several pictures of sleepy babies, with yawning, hugging, and then sleeping. Great for infants who just like to look at babies, but also could make a nice book to transition into bed time.

Nice and short and good to teach kids how to read as the pics reflect the words. Children like seeing other kids and pointing to the "baby."

It was ok, the book had babies clinging to blankets and toys. I'm not sure if I liked that idea, but my daughter did like looking at the baby faces.
