Brief Summary and How to Use With Students:
Sleep, Baby, Sleep was originally apart of the Mother Goose collection but author Maryann Love began to add verses to make this beautiful lullaby even more inspirational to children.
This is a great book to read to kindergartener’s before nap time or to first graders to begin talking about descriptive words. It can also be used for older grades to discuss similes and metaphors.
