Description
The Talk-About-Books series is designed to enhance a baby’s or toddler’s first collection of books. Good Night explores the fun and chores that come with saying “good night” and going to sleep. Each photograph is realistic and emphasizes loving family relationships. Children from various familial and ethnic backgrounds experience “bedtime” and are seen in different stages of preparing for the end of the day.
