CHILL WITH LIL by Sue Pickford

If you are a parent, grandparent or carer who struggles all the time with getting a child to sleep, this large format and full-colour picture book will be an invaluable tool to be read to the wide-awake child. It uses mindfulness techniques to induce calm and hopefully to encourage sleep. The pictures are bright, clear and charming – all the characters are cats and Lil is the aunt who comes in to save the day. There is also a page at the start specifically for the person reading the book that gives tips on what the book is trying to do and outlines the whole process of mindfulness. It’s written by a UK author.
