My mom is a huge Mary Englebreit fan, and growing up I would always look forward to the new year as I knew she would be getting from Santa or picking up a couple calendars featuring Mary Engelbreit illustrations. I loved flipping through the calendar pages to admire the whimsical and playful illustrations. And, then when I got older and got a place of my own, I found myself gravitating towards Mary Engelbreit calendars when the new year would roll around. You can't help but fall in love with the cute illustrations done by this NY Times Bestselling illustrator. All her illustrations are of love and family and really warm your heart.
So, when I heard the folks at Zondervan had a children's storybook from Mary Engelbreit, I had to get my hands on a copy...not only to admire the illustrations myself, but to introduce my girls to this amazing illustrator. As a Z Squad blog ambassador for Zonderkidz, I was sent a review copy, and when it arrived a couple of weeks ago, I couldn't wait to share it at bedtime with the girls.
As soon as the girls saw the cover of this book, they started to smile and pointing out the different things in the illustration. They really liked the detail of the mouse family, and the bedroom scene. Savannah said "Mom, check out the beautiful quilt. It looks so real." And, Bella was quick to point the cute little bunny slippers for the mice to wear. They were in for a treat as this book contained a collection of bedtime poems, snuggly stories and precious prayers, that will help little ones drift off peacefully to sleep, as they envision all the different illustrations seen in this cute bedtime book from Mary Engelbreit. Bella wanted to show you all her favorite illustration in the book. She said the piggies were so cute. :-)
Here is more about this sweet bedtime book that every child will enjoy hearing at night time, and both kids and adults will enjoy admiring the playful illustrations done by a brilliant illustrator.
Mama comes to tuck you in,
Pulls the covers to your chin,
Squeezes fingers, squeezes toes,
Lays a kiss upon your nose.
