A simple rhyming picture book that’s all things love and heart…
Rose offers a bedtime story in her latest book, resourcefully delving into mother-child connection. The book starts with the mother’s gentle words: “As I tuck you into night,/ This love letter I write.” On the next spread, the young child is seen sleeping peacefully on the bed. The mother in this story makes her appearance only after a few pages, getting her little one ready for the bed. On other pages, readers see the mother cuddling, playing or eating with the young child. The first-person narration in the mother’s voice is sweet and poignant, imparting a dreamy quality to the story. The accompanying illustrations are subtle, with a single color, solid backgrounds, letting the young readers focus on the sweet rhyming text. Both mother and child have tightly curled hair and medium to dark skin tone. A sweet bedtime book to assure your little ones that they are more than loved.
