The Bedtime Bunny

A magical approach to happy, healthy bedtimes.

By: Christy Laakmann Kaupinen,Gayle Laakmann McDowell

A beautiful picture book that motivates young children to stay in bed using the power of magic (and rewards). This magical and whimsical picture book, the Bedtime Bunny solves a major problem: children everywhere won't stay in their beds! The unicorns, the leprechauns, and even baby dragons cannot fly free at night because the children might see them. This is the story of how the very first Bedtime Bunny came to be, on a real street called Red Fox Lane. To this day, the Bedtime Bunny makes sure the children are in bed each night, so the magical creatures are free to fly. Invite your very own Bedtime Bunny into your family, for a restful and magical night for all.
