Book Review
In addition to being an excellent go to sleep picture book, An Affirmation: Nite Baby Nite offers an extraordinary asset in the front of the book: a primer for caregivers on two important topics. First, guidelines from the American Association of Pediatricians on safe and proper ways to put baby to sleep are provided, including how to position the child’s body and where a child should and should not be allowed to sleep. The primer also offers ten tips on how to create a rich and valuable reading experience for the child, including the types of books to read to babies of color, how to interact with baby while reading, and ways in which baby can interact with the books themselves.
