Every child begs for one more story before bed. Finally, social skills expert Carol Gray has provided a solution with The Last Bedtime Story That We Read Each Night.
Short, sweet, reassuring, and to-the-point, this instant classic helps children go to sleep quickly and calmly. According to parents, this book has ended bedtime arguments after just one night!
When parents clearly and warmly state that this is "The Last Bedtime Story," children relax their bodies and minds as it is being read to them. They know there are no more stories to be begged for. Plus, Carol carefully wrote this book so it can be read in less than one minute!
The only question that remains is: why didn't anyone think of it sooner?
