Rating: - Great book for kids who worry
My boys ages 6 and 8 love this book. We talk about about how to relax when feeling nervous or scared about something. Kids today worry about so many things. It's nice to see Lite's books showing ways to manage stress in children.
Rating: - Goodnight Catepillar means a good night for Mama
My recent purchase of The Goodnight Catepillar by Lori Light was prompted by my 2 yo daughter's difficulty finding sleep at the end of the day. Since receiving the book, I find the nights we choose "the Catepillar book" result in quicker, deeper sleep for her.

As a mother of a 9 year-old ADHD daughter, I found this story to be an excellent way to teach relaxation techniques.

My 2 sons ( and I ) enjoy this story every single night. They never get tired of hearing it and I never get tired of reading it. I have a 7 year old who suffers from severe food allergies and deals with a lot of stress on a daily basis, this book has done wonders for him. Not only is it a great bedtime story that helps them relax ( me too... ) it teaches a lesson that they can use throughout their lives. I highly recommend this book to every parent. Your child WILL love it, and you will too.
