"It's Bedtime for Little Monkeys" by Susie Lee Jin: Book Review


Isn't he adorable?
This is the 2nd "Little Monkeys" board book by Susie Lee Jin I have reviewed, and it speaks the language in words and pictures of the small child. It is always a pleasure to have in my hands a book that a little child will hold and love. When the impressionable mind and heart of a child latches onto a colorful, fist sized treasure that he can carry around with him as he toddles throughout his unfolding life, and when that treasure can engage him with simple yet cute pictures, then we are ready to see a mind and heart embark on a learning adventure.

"It's Bedtime for Little Monkeys," text and illustrations by Susie Lee Jin, is a small board book that takes the monkeys from "come in, it's bedtime" through "goodnight."  The young toddler will completely identify with the routine of bedtime. Though published by a Christian publishing house, there is no Scripture or Bible lesson involved in the book. They have bedtime prayers.

I can see little ones toddling through the house, clutching this cute little book in their chubby hands, and showing Mommy or Daddy that the monkeys brush their teeth, too.  And getting Mommy or Daddy to kiss the monkeys goodnight, too.

At roughly $5, you can afford to let you little one be a bit messy with this one and not worry if it gets tattered in the effort of learning.
