...it’s funny how the books that our children love to read themselves and the ones that they love having read to them by us can differ so much as well...one of my sons would love the Little Bear books when he was very young...I would try to move on to something else as a go to sleep read but Can’t You Sleep Little Bear? was the only he wanted...It was very calming and I would generally be asleep within the first few pages and then I’d realise that he was asleep when I woke up...I used to think because it was so calming etc...but I think looking back now...?...it was possibly the only way he got to know how to hush me up so he could get some sleep and he wasn’t confident that any other book would work so quickly....
