About this title

Synopsis

To bed, to bed,
Says Sleepyhead.
Tarry a while,
Says Slow.
Put on the pan,
Says Greedy Nan,
Let's sup before
We go.

Going to bed can feel like a world crisis sometimes. But there's nothing like a routine and a little bit of fun to make a potentially explosive experience palatable. Enter Good Night, Sleep Tight, the answer to every parent's (and kid's) dreams. With a poem for every single night of the year, even February 29th, if it happens to be a leap year, families can make a pleasant ritual out of bedtime. From anonymous writers (like the one who wrote the verse above), lesser known poets, and the masters: Shakespeare, Robert Louis Stevenson, and Emily Dickinson, these 366 poems will tickle your sleepyhead's fancy and lull her or him to sleep, night after night, all year long. Special attention is paid to holidays (Yom Kippur, Christmas, St. Patrick's Day, Buddha's birthday, etc.), with some traditional song lyrics and verses from many cultures all over the world. A different artist illustrates each month's poems with wit and bright color. Children will love finding each day's date in preparation for read-aloud time in bed, and perhaps peeking ahead--just a tiny bit--to tomorrow's poem! (Ages 4 to 8) --Emilie Coulter
