Book Description
"A vibrant and truly beautiful picture book... in which nature is personified and can shine in all its magnificence. Aisato and Njie's combined artistic expression calls forth both nature's and life's power and vulnerability, united in something so natural and wondrous as sleep. I am absolutely certain that this both sensual and hypnotic picture book will become a favorite for thousands of children." --Dagsavisen (Norway) Children sleep. Grown-ups sleep. Animals sleep. And the seasons of the year sleep too. Soon You'll Be Sleeping is a goodnight book about nature's seasons as they sleep and awaken, sleep and awaken through the year. Children listening and reading will be lulled by the rhymes and the whimsical pictures of nature's dreamy beauty. Spring sleeps in wintertime, beneath the frozen snow, Among the roots and seeds and tiny things that grow. Spring dreams of bugs and spiders creeping on the grass Of tadpoles swiftly swimming and buds that open fast. Of bees that flit from bloom to bloom, all day without a pause, Of ladybugs and brooks that babble as the cold ice thaws. Spring is up and leaping now, so happy in the sun. The world has come alive, the transformation has begun. Spring wakes up after winter. This is always true. But in the springtime summer sleeps. Soon you'll be sleeping too. Soon You'll Be Sleeping has been lauded by Norway's press for its wonderfully rendered illustrations and the lyrical beauty of the text, which link the memories and experiences of each season. It's a shimmering goodnight book for all sleepyheads.

My sleep deprivation was affecting every aspect of my life. I read several books on sleep training, as well as blogs and websites. I was at my wits end. After following the program for two weeks, my child was consistently sleeping 11-12 hours a night and was on a consistent schedule during the day! This program has literally given me my life back." - McKel Neilsen "Two months ago I was at the end of my sleep rope with our 6-month-old, boy/girl twins. Exhausted doesn't begin to explain it, I felt desperate. After using the Baby Sleep Trainer Method we feel like we have our lives back. The babies are happy and well rested, and so are we! We have our evenings back to cook dinner, spend time with our 4-year-old daughter, hang out together, and actually do things we enjoy. The process took commitment but has been absolutely worth every bit of it." - Beth Oller, MD "Using the Baby Sleep Trainer Method, my daughter quickly went to a routine nap schedule during the day and sleeping through the night from 6:30pm to 6:30am! Also, rather than the exhausting and often unsuccessful rocking or soothing or feeding to sleep, we were able to put her down awake in her crib and she would fall asleep on her own in just a few minutes. It was just incredible." - Online Review
