Sleeping Bear Press Nana Loves You, Sleepyhead

The rhyming text flows so naturally that my three-year-old grandchild helps me finish each page. It’s become our favorite way to wind down before bed, and the gentle theme really does set a sleepy mood.

The illustrations are so warm and cozy, really capturing that grandparent-grandchild bond. It's short enough to keep a little one's attention before bed, but still feels like a meaningful story.

My grandson actually asks for this one by name now—it’s become our little ritual before bed. The way it centers the grandparent bond without being sappy is exactly what I was hoping for, and the sleepy mood it sets makes the transition to lights-out so much smoother.
