why do we say goodnight -- a book review

Why Do We Say Goodnight? is an imaginatively beautifully illustrated picture book for children about why we can rest easy at night knowing that God is always there.

This book follows a little girl and her mother at bedtime, as the mother comforts her daughter by telling her of the Great Shepherd who never leaves our sides -- even when we sleep.  The little girl is afraid of nighttime and the dark, but she soon learns that God is not limited by the dark, since he made both light and dark, she can trust him to keep her safe. 


Original, simple, yet so powerful, with excellent presentation opening up a great conversation about God and how he watches over us, and we can put our trust in him. 

This is a book bound to become a nightly tradition for families.
