A charming read-aloud bedtime book for toddlers 

With its sweet bedtime rhymes, I Dream a Dream for You resembles the classic title The Going to Bed Book by Sandra Boynton. A family of red pandas make their home in the forest. When it's time for bed, Mom and Dad tuck in their three kiddos, and as they all drift to sleep, dreams come to life through the vibrant pictures and story. Parents or grandparents will enjoy reading this sweet bedtime rhyme, filled with dreams and aspirations for their little ones. With amazing, colorful illustrations, this read-to-me story richly shows the love of a faith-filled family with creative, interesting scenes that kids will love to see over and over--and those who read it to them will experience the blessing of God's love, which is meant to be shown and shared with families.

My thoughts: This picture book is so sweet! My children enjoy having me sit down with this book, since it has a beautiful message of the things we dream and hope for when it comes to our children or those children in our care. They love the sweet pictures of red pandas and the adorable little family that follows the lyrical writing. This one is an easy one to read and enjoy! I love how the words flow together. This book is a new favorite in our home! 

I received this book from Just Read. This is my honest review.
