Ratings and reviews

I bought this and It's Time To Sleep. I must say... they always leave me with a lump in my throat, no matter how many times I read them to my little. We LOVE all of these books. If I could, I'd donate them to each new mother, as the first story to ever read to their babies while still in the hospital.

I have a tradition of reading this to my sweet kiddos every night on their birthday. My favorite is the last page; "Heaven blew every trumpet and played every horn on the wonderful, marvellous night you were born". Love this book so much!! ❤

I love these books. I love to read them when my son is having a bad day bc they make him feel better.
