• You may want to leaf through the book and look at the illustrations together. You could ask your child to tell you the story in their own words, according to the sequence of illustrations.

• Perhaps you could build a tent out of bed sheets and blankets, go into them with your child, and read the book together there.

• You may enjoy playing a “reverse role” game: have your child read you a bedtime story, sing you a lullaby, tuck you in, and kiss you good night.

• You may want to act the story out using two puppets, representing Amalia and Mommy, as well as other puppets or stuffed animals. In your show, who will fall asleep first?

• You could share childhood memories with your children: did you share a room with your siblings? Who put you to bed? Did they tell you stories or sing you lullabies? Did you sleep with a certain stuffed toy or teddy bear?

This is the last book you and your child will be receiving from PJ Library this year. You may want to walk over to your bookshelf and be reminded of all the books you received. Do you have a favorite one? We wish you a wonderful storyful summer. See you next year!
