Wee Reads: Goodnight Sandman by Daniela Drescher

Ever since Finn was born, and even before then, we would read to him. We wanted to show him reading from an early age. Now he loves us to read the same books, over, and over, and over. But it is the sweetest thing, when he likes to pick out a book and climb into our laps.

Every evening, when the sun sets and everyone else is going to bed, Jacob the Sandman wakes up and starts work.
Then one night Jacob sleeps too deeply and wakes up late! He rushes to Dream Sand Hill but there, atop the pile of dream sand, is a scary Night Monster, snoring his terrible snore.
Jacob the Sandman must collect the magic dream sand so that the children of the world can dream happy dreams. Fortunately, the Night Monster turns out to be not so scary after all.

This beautiful bedtime tale is perfect for encouraging sweet dreams and banishing nightmares. The luminous illustrations by much-loved artist Daniela Drescher will make this a new night-time favourite.

Do you like this book?
No not really. It's really boring. I only like the monster.

What's your favorite part of the book?
When the monster was snoring and then they gave him a name and now he lives with them.

What do you think of the cover?
I like it because he's sprinklin sand! And he's in a balloon.




This is an interesting read. It is kind of slow and Finn had a really hard time sitting still during it. It felt long and kind of slow for kids. 

The story is interesting and the graphics are great, but just not for us.
