It’s appropriate that I logged this book on Father’s Day. A charming book about the special parenting a father provides. ( )

This has been my favorite read-aloud bed-time story for many many years. It's the story of baby bear, who can't fall asleep. Each of the other bears (mother, grandma and grandpa) try to sing baby bear to sleep, but in the end Papa Bear takes baby bear out in his boat and the sounds of the night time put him to sleep. The text is soothing to read with the verses and then the animal sounds and the illustrations are equally peaceful. ( )
