From bathtime to storytime to cuddling, young children of all sizes, shapes, ethnicities, and abilities get ready for bed with loving parents and caregivers.
The Sh'ma prayer is one of the oldest and most foundational prayers of the Jewish religion. Traditionally said at bedtime to express love, peace, and the Oneness of God, it implores us to listen. This gentle introduction for young children helps them sound out the very beginning of the prayer and to begin to glimpse its meaning while connecting to the sounds of bedtime. By slowing down the first word-shhh, mmm, ahhh-this quiet book helps them hear the sounds of the world around us and within us.
