If you have kids, you know how challenging bedtime can be when it’s time to unwind from the day. As a busy mom and founder of Savvy Sleepers, Dale Janée—an avid reader of celebrity memoirs—started curating a list of her kids favorite go-to books, which started about 5 years ago.
"One day, while holding my sleeping 3-month-old after her vaccinations, I realized I was spending more time reading myself. Escaping from the new lockdown, and COVID press briefings. I started a shelf of calming, happy, children's books and wanted share our kids' favorites,' said Dale.
Today we'll introduce you to Always Sam. It's a beautifully written story about kindness, empathy, and inclusion. A book your kids will want to read night after night.
Dale's kids absolutely adore it, and she feels honored to know the author, Joan Tabb. Joan is hosting a special event for families in Northern California this Saturday which we're excited to share below! This book is perfect for all ages, especially kids in kindergarten through 3rd grade.
