The Sleeping Book

Abstract: " Shhh... The book is falling asleep. Ask him if he has brushed his teeth. Tell him a story. Give him a good cuddle. There he closes his eyes... " The sleeping book reverses the roles: it's bedtime, but it's up to the book, and not the child, to ask to be told a story before sleep. Little by little, his eyelids get heavy, they close as soon as you give him a kiss, and he falls asleep...This narrative and playful trick allows the child to disassociate himself from how he experiences going to bed in order to become a simple bystander and thus circumvent his blocks by tempering his emotional intensity.2-4 yearsAuthor: Ramadier & Bourgeau20 pages hardback 18.5x24 cm
