Silly Picture Books!
Reading a book before bed is a great way to calm the mind, alleviate stress and build healthy habits. Reading together also creates bonds between a child and their grown-up.
Reading a funny short book before bed is a perfect strategy to develop this habit with lots of smiles and giggles.
Below are some of my favorite silly picture books! Enjoy!

Barnacle is bored by the monotony of the tides, and envies the fish who swim freely–until an eel comes along.
Bark, George!

Nanette's Baguette
It’s Nanette’s first trip to get the baguette! Is she set? You bet!
Moo!
When Cow gets her hooves on the farmer’s car, she takes it for a wild ride through the country.
Be Quiet!
Rupert the mouse wants to star in an artistic, wordless picture book, but his animal friends cause problems by talking too much.
