I was sent a copy of Farm Lullaby in exchange for this review.
This new children’s book called Farm Lullaby is published by Karen Jameson and Illustrated by Wednesday Kirwan. I hope you take the time to check out Farm Lullaby not only for the storyline which reminds me of a song.
As I was reading Farm Lullaby I found myself humming the words and tapping my feet. Once I finished reading the book I shared the story with Charlie who said we could use the book in Art Class and also in our Music Class.
The animals inside Farm Lullaby look realistic enough to reach out and touch. Charlie and I enjoyed seeing all the different kinds and enjoyed learning about each of them in our Homeschool Reading Class.
With lyrical text from Karen Jameson (Woodland Dreams) and lovely illustrations from Wednesday Kirwan (Eggs Are Everywhere), this bedtime book shows every animal on the farm tucked in tight, drifting off to sweet dreams tonight!
Farm-a-bye lullaby
Field and barn melt into sky
Moonbeams shine on evening blush
Nighttime’s blanket settles. Hush.
From the largest horse to the smallest mouse, every animal on the farm has a sweet, sleepy bedtime ritual. Curl up like a soft lamb, snuggle like a warm chick, and settle in like a cozy calf, letting this soothing farm lullaby lull even restless little dreamers into a deep and peaceful sleep.
This dreamy bedtime book pairs gentle rhymes with charming illustrations of the sleeping rituals of favorite farm animals. A great gift for any occasion, this lovely animal lullaby makes the perfect addition to any nursery, bedroom, or cozy reading nook.
