Sweet bedtime book for toddlers

I have been reading this to my little Holly for over a year almost everynight, she knows all the words and several lines make her smile. Every night she asks for either Sweet Dreams Mimi or Goodnight Moon. I would strongly recommend this book, I plan to put it away in her lifetime memories box if she ever outgrows it. I bet 20 years from now she could read this book and remember most of the lines.

A Nice Bedtime Book for Toddlers to Kindergartners - a review of "Sweet Dreams, Mimi"

We've looked at many of the Baby Einstein books over the years and I think this is my favorite. It's a bedtime book and it's actually nicely done and Ms. Julie is getting very good at selecting the imagery and words used in her poems. What you find in "Sweet Dreams" is a combination of drawings and pictures. The pictures are of the images conjured by the poetic words; and the drawings are of Mimi and her Mama as they get ready for sleep. It begins: Each night, after kisses, Mimi asks for sweet dreams... And Mama whispers Softly colored pictures To fill Mimi's head As she slips into bed Between sheets cool and smooth... And then the next two pages show a beautiful photo of snow covered spruces and the words are: Mama says, "Think of..." Snowflakes big as cotton balls, Slipping from winter-white clouds, Melting like sugar on your tongue, Snowflakes like little stars Blanketing the ground." Each pair of succeeding pages show other sweet pictures, while in the lower right hand corner we see Mimi becoming increasing relaxed until she falls fast asleep. Four Stars. [B+] Great Read-aloud. Art is either very nice or extremely cute depending on subject. (There is a darling mouse in a little girls shoe in one photo.) My son (newly 5) picked this up at the library and we've been reading it every night.

A wonderful night-time read!

I really enjoy reading this book to my daughter. It uses descriptive language and soothing imagery which not only teaches her but helps her drift off to sleep with happy thoughts!

My 20-month old twins love this book!

Both my daughters have grown with the Baby Einstein products and we love just about everything they make. This book is sweet and wonderful and great at bedtime. My daughters love to see MiMi sleeping on the bottom of the page and they've even learned to say MiMi. There are a ton of things for them to point to and new words to be discovered. A nice addition to your collection of baby books.
