Children's ✦ Penny’s Take

Goodnight Wynn and the Moon, It's Almost Bedtime

Melissa Ryan · 2015
58/100
👎 Skip It

A sweet concept that delivers exactly what it promises — a child's name woven into a soothing bedtime story — but the personalized-gift format produces something formulaic rather than literary. The illustrations are functional at best, and the template nature of the series means there's little here that a gifted parent couldn't find in a better-crafted picture book. Worth buying as a name-gift novelty, but not as a standout bedtime read.
