Book Review: Goodnight Little Owlet

Goodnight Little Owlet, Poems for Little Creatures from the Very Big Wood, by Anne Marie Brown (Wordee Publishing, 2021, $8.99, a board book for ages 0-6 - good for the 2 1/2 year old especially)

A Lovely Little Treat

Goodnight Little Owlet is the third book in the 'Poems for Little Creatures from the Very Big Wood' series (Foxy Moxy and Hazel's First Winter) by Anne Marie Brown.

Replete with absolutely lovable rhyme, meter and social emotional learning, author Anne Marie Brown has given us 'a little gem for little people.' This toddler-sized book is just right for little hands (and strong enough to last) with a lovely go-to-sleep story for naps or nighttimes. The rhyme-scheme actually helps a little (or big) one fade off to sleep with delightful word pictures and soft, soothing illustrations!

The story is very melodic, a book of pictures with just a couplet on each page. Baby owl and mom inhabit the book, the mom who protects and teaches (numbers to 5) with stars in the sky and breaths one takes to relax.

This book is a keeper!
