The Sleep Dwarf

Book Cover & Preview Text
Deep in a forest in a far-off land
Some dear little dwarves live in a band.
Our story tells of a Sleep Dwarf so bright,
Who sweetens children’s dreams all through the night.
Our Sleep Dwarf with wand, his cap on his head,
Also has a carriage with horses well fed.
Night after night our Sleep Dwarf sets out
With his cute little horses, round and about,
Whispers a spell to his magic wand – hey-ho!
The horses take flight and off they go.
What else does he carry? A notebook of course,
Where he writes children’s names – yes, perhaps even yours!

About the Book
Bedtime routine has never been easier with The Sleep Dwarf!
This rhyming story is about tiny Sleep Dwarf who lives far away and has a magical kiss for children:
"A kiss on the forehead makes you so, so clever,
You'll stay that way for ever and ever,
While with a single tender kiss on the toe,
Well, wait and see, you'll grow and grow."
And in order to receive that magical kiss, children have to eat fruit and veggies, brush their teeth and go to bed on time!
After reading the book, children will be looking forward to Sleep Dwarf’s visits (that occur only when they are asleep!) and will cooperate happily with bedtime routine – which means eating healthier, brush their teeth and go to bed when they are told.
Note: A digital version is available too. Please continue to read for more details.
