What Parents Should Know
Sensitive Topics
None. The book is entirely secular and focuses on universal themes of parental love and nighttime security.
Ideal Reader
A toddler who experiences separation anxiety at night or who is a tactile learner. This child needs a physical object to manipulate (the felt hat) to help them focus their attention while listening to the soothing words of a caregiver.
Parent Prep
No prep is needed. The text is simple and intended to be read with a slow, melodic cadence. A parent might choose this after a particularly chaotic 'witching hour' or when a child repeatedly resists getting into their pajamas, using the felt hat as a 'reward' for sitting still to read.
