This enchanting book is the perfect gift to herald the arrival of a new baby, or for any mother to share with a young child. Written by bestselling children’s author Nanette Newman and exquisitely illustrated by Flora Daneman (now also a successful portrait artist), Bedtime is a visual lullaby, a soothing and loving accompaniment to a mother and infant’s bedtime ritual. The imaginatively crafted text and pictures envelop the child in a warm and comforting embrace, guaranteed to smooth the path to sweet dreams.

As a yound child, Flora Daneman expressed a desire to one day illustrate a book by family friend Nanette Newman. Some twenty years later her youthful ambition was fulfilled when they successfully collaborated on the children’s sory, That Dog. The delightful Bedtime is their second book together.
