A Bedtime Classic

The gentle, rhyming text and the beautiful illustrations in "Sleepy Me" are guaranteed to lull even the crankiest little one toward the Land of Nod. The words comfort and calm, while the images are soft and rich enough to hold interest without overstimulating those that resist bedtime for all they're worth. A special note for Mom and Dad: You'll find yourself ready for bed after reading this one!

A Dream Come True

Perhaps because SLEEPY ME is dedicated to my late father, I was especially concerned about the illustrations that would be married to my words. During the production process, I confess that I was a bit concerned. What if they didn’t really match the feeling I tried to convey? I needn’t have worried. Sam Williams’s lovely pictures are BETTER than I ever dreamed! Now that our book is published, we both hope that it will find a treasured spot on many a child’s bookshelf and that it will become a part of the night-time rituals in many a home -- Marni McGee, author.

Lulled us to sle-e-eeep

My grandson and I loved this book. Beside having the lulling quality of well-chosen words, the book has a way of just closing sleepy eyes. The story is reminiscent of "Goodnight Moon," another favorite. Think this is destined to be a classic in our house.

A lovely lullaby

A lovely lullaby - - in book form! - - that will ease even the most wide-awake toddlers into dreamland. This is a modern-day GOOD NIGHT MOON, with a simple, lyrical rhyme and charming illustrations -- all in muted, drowsy colors - - depicting the sleepy people and sleepy objects in a child's world. A perfect read-aloud choice for bedtime that is destined to become a classic.
