Review: Great for 10 year old - Before buying this book, we checked it out through our interlibrary loan to see if this was something worth getting. My oldest has a variety of anxieties and fears that have made sleeping on her own and through the night a challenge. Our temporary solution was to sleep with her or nearby but we and she knew this wasn't a good solution. She wants so badly to be able to fall asleep on her own and stay asleep. This book has some fantastic tools and strategies. Additionally, it starts each chapter with an easy to understand concept and teaches a fun and easy magic trick. It was helpful for her to read how much sleep she should have and use the worksheet provided to determine when she should be in bed in order to be rested for the next day. The section on how to turn your fears into something funny has been helpful. She was very reluctant to try that as she didn't want to talk about those fears outloud, but now that she has, it has taken some of the power away. We are still working on it, but she is making progress and feels that it is possible. She will request this book and ask to try strategies without our prompting. I would highly recommend this book. I also work with students during the school year and I will recommend this book to parents who may be struggling with the same things.
Review: Fantastic! - I got this for my 10 yr old daughter who does not often go to sleep easily for fear of having a bad dream. We started reading it in bed with the intent of just reading a section or two. But every time I said that's enough for tonight, she asked if we could please keep reading. This book hooked her (and me) immediately with both the content (including a magic trick which I let her do; and activities & games, which we read thru but will do during the day tomorrow. And a the way it is written - appropriate for younger children but not babyish or cutesy, so - good for tweens also. It not only helps to record and track new/ improving sleep patterns, but also what to do about the fears, thoughts, & dreams that keep her from sleeping and/or sleeping well. She fell asleep just before the end, knowing we'll read it again & do the activities tomorrow. Seems like working thru this book could greatly improve her sleep and diminish the fear of her dreams. Will send an update in a few weeks - but so far we're off to a good start!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A Sanity Saver!!!!
*by A***. on July 28, 2012*

We were at our wits end with our 9-year old son's bedtime fears and the affect it was having on his sleep (and ours). Our counselor suggested this book. Not only does help a child define why they are having trouble sleeping, but it also begins with some fun, easy magic tricks to help the child (and parent) understand the need to follow all the steps in the book. The "Patterns" chapter allows you and your child to construct a series of activites prior to bedtime to get your child accustomed to a routine (& let the body wind down for sleep). The hard part for us was sticking the routine every night because other commitments but we did it & it was worth it. There's even a chapter that helps the child deal with their fear of the dark & of being alone. I was concerned this program would not work because my son is so cynical but the exercises are fun & allowing him to be part of some of the decision making process was perfect. It gave us family time, and our son has been going to bed without drama, falling asleep quickly and staying asleep for a month now. Mom & dad are happy!
