Review of Stevie Tenderheart Books A Second Kiss Goodnight (A Bedtime Story)
Stevie Tenderheart Books A Second Kiss Goodnight (A Bedtime Story) by Steve William Laible is a heartwarming tale that radiates silliness, joy, and gladness, making it a delightful addition to bedtime routines. From the first page, the book introduces the charming character of Stevie Tenderheart, a little boy who loves to act silly and find mischief, setting the stage for a whimsical journey. Stevie’s escapades, such as dreaming in animation, flying amidst stars without leaving his bed, and tasting the rainbow with his spoon, infuse the narrative with humour and imaginative flair.
The book narrates Stevie’s struggle to fall asleep, leading him to discover a unique solution: a second goodnight kiss. This inventive twist not only adds a touch of magic to the story but also introduces a valuable lesson about finding personal comfort in the face of challenges. As Stevie’s remedy becomes a sought-after experience in the neighbourhood, the book weaves in educational elements. Young readers will learn about different animals and their characteristics, expanding their knowledge both playfully and engagingly. The narrative weaves in the overarching theme of parental love, emphasising how Stevie's desire for a second goodnight kiss resonates with other children and highlights the boundless affection parents have for their little ones.
I rate this book five out of five. The first reason is the use of colourful pictures, which enhances the visual appeal and creates a captivating atmosphere for young readers. Another reason is the quotable quotes sprinkled throughout the book, which offer nuggets of wisdom in a format digestible for children. The gentle humour interwoven into the narrative had me giggling from start to finish, adding an extra layer of enjoyment. One notable aspect is the author’s adept incorporation of proper hygiene education. By incorporating proper hygiene education, the author turns a valuable lesson into an entertaining part of the story and reminds children of the importance of practicing cleanliness.
I did not notice any negatives in the book, and the careful editing contributed to the overall positive reading experience. The author has crafted a bedtime story that not only entertains but also educates, creating a harmonious blend that captivates young minds.
I recommend this book to parents, carers, and educators seeking a charming and enriching story for bedtime. This book’s combination of silliness, joy, and heartwarming moments makes it a perfect choice to cultivate a love for reading and foster imaginative exploration in children. It’s an absolute gem that will bring smiles and warmth to bedtime routines.
