Candlewick books for bedtime for kids review & giveaway ends Oct 22

As most of you know with 6 kids and 20 minutes each of reading every night we read alot of books. Our favorite time to read is right before bed during quiet time. So when Candlewick Publishing ask if we would like to review some of their newest bedtime stories for kids you bet we couldn't wait.
The first book we got was Switching on the Moon. It is a bedtime poem book. I am a huge poetry lover so I loved this one best. There was traditional poems like twinkle little star and rock a bye baby but there were alot of new ones. Some were silly and some were encouraging like bedtime teeth and Bath time poem. There are many different authors and styles of poetry but overall we loved it. My kids read this one alot as well as do I. Definitely a must have for all kids book libraries.
The next book we got from Candlewick Publishing was Tuck me in! This is my 2 year olds favorite book. It is a cute book with baby animals where you put their blanket over them and tuck them in goodnight. She love tucking in all the animals. We have to read it every night and nap time. I think she pretty much has it memorized. It is so cute. Definitely a cute book for the younger kids.
The next book we got was Moon Dreams. It is a cute story about a little girl named Luna who loved the moon but wondered where it went during the day. Her dreams take her on a fun journey as she searches for where the moon goes. The pictures are adorable and the story is fun. This is a great book for the wondering kid. My 6 year old love this one!
The next book we got from Candlewick Publishing was the Interrupting Chicken. Now this one reminds me of my kids lol. The papa chicken was trying to tell little red chicken a bedtime story to put her to sleep but little red chicken kept interrupting the story and changing the story to make it better so she wasn't falling a sleep and papa couldn't finish a story. Finally papa made little red hen tell him a story and they both fell a sleep. Definitely a cute and funny book. My 8 year old loves it and thinks it is silly she changes the story the way she does. My 6 year old tell little red chicken to be quiet and listen to the story ha ha. Its cute and a definitely fun book to have.
The last book we got was A Bedtime for Bear. This is a very funny book. Bear has a sleepover with mouse but bear finds out how hard it is to sleep when they both like different things. Bear like complete silence to sleep and mouse well isn't as quiet as the saying quiet as a mouse goes. It is a fun and intriguing book. My kids love it and have read it many times already. They love the silly little mouse. The pictures are fun and adorable. This is another must have book for your kids for bedtime. This will soon become one of their favorites!

Overall we were very pleased with all the bedtime books we got from Candlewick Publishing. They were all awesome books. You kids will love each and every one of them. So if your looking to build up your kids book collection then look no further than Candlewick Publishing they have all types of fun books you and your kids will love.

We are giving one lucky reader the Book Tuck Me In. My daughters favorite!
