I bought this for my five year old granddaughter to read to her new baby brother. It is just adorable and sweet with a very gentle story appropriate for young children. The religious part is actually very subtle only mentioning saying bedtime prayers and then ending with God Bless You Goodnight at the very end. That was an important factor because I wanted to encourage the granddaughters belief in God without stepping on the toes of her mother who is not a believer yet. Highly recommended for very young children or older children to read to younger siblings.
God Bless You and Goodnight, written by Hannah C. Hall, with illustrations by Steve Whitlow, is a darling little board book my one-year-old just loves. She is really interested in animals and all of a sudden has begun to ask me to read to her. Where a few weeks ago she couldn't sit still for story time, now she hands me book after book, squealing in delight as I read and let her turn the pages. She loves when I make the animal sounds and begs me to read the same book over and over again.With softly painted pictures of baby animals and their mommies as they get ready for bed, I fell in love with God Bless You and Goodnight from the very first rhyme to the final goodnight kiss. This book is a precious keepsake, one I can imagine I will read to my grand-babies one day. Some books end up on the shelf with the many others we own, getting read only a few times a year. God Bless You and Goodnight, however, has a special place in a basket on the floor--the basket my girls choose books from most. I am so excited that my one-year-old in particular wants to be read to that I don't even mind reading the same book over and over again. It's just part of being a mommy!God Bless You and Good Night is recommended for children ages 1 to 4 years. If your little ones are anything like mine, they will be snuggling with this book rather than a stuffed animal.Disclosure:I received a copy of God Bless You and Goodnight through the Tommy Nelson Mommy Program.

This really is a sweet book. My 28 month old daughter just moved to her "big girl bed" and now gets story time every night - her aunt got her this book for Christmas and it is now in heavy rotation for bedtime! She almost has it memorized, she loves it. The illustrations are beautiful, I enjoy it almost as much as she does! I also have a 5 month old daughter, and I caught myself calling her "you fuzzy head" (a line from the book). :-) Highly recommend for bedtime and I look forward to Hannah's next books for my girls!
This book is perfect for any little one. I like the pictures and the story/words in the book. I bought this as a baptism gift for my nephew and I know that both he and my sister in law will appreciate it.Great way to teach your little ones about the Lord.
I bought this book to give as a baptism gift. It's much better than I imagined- the pictures are gorgeous, the book is sturdy, and the story is very sweet. I will be registering for this book for our own baby and will purchase it if we do not receive it.
This is the sweetest book, I've bought several for baby gifts, and the parents have loved it. I highly recommend this to all ! I can't wait to have grandchildren to share this with, and I'm looking forward to the next two books coming Easter and Christmas . Hannah is beautiful inside and out as well.
This book is just okay. I got it as a night time book for 22 mo old, but I don't think it's a great bedtime book as it talks about taking a bath, getting a snack all before bedtime. Might be a better read for early evening then right before bed. My little one is just uninterested in this book.
Great illustrations for when baby comes. Already gave it to my daughter so she can even read to her baby before she is born. Babies can hear mother before they are born and I understand from professionals that they also learn in utero from what they hear - language patterns, soothing speech, music, song, etc.
