ABOUT THE BOOK

        A delightful, interactive, bedtime book for children of all ages.  Each night's reading shares moments of happiness that tightens a life-long bond between parent and child.

        Picture this!  It’s late.  You shout, “Time for bed.” You hear: “I don’t want to go to bed.”; or “It’s too early.”; or “Why does Jeremy get to stay up later?”; or “There’s a monster under my bed!”.  Now, thanks to Wiggle Your Nose – Wiggle Your Toes your child will remind you when it’s “Time for bed.” 

        Imagine!  You and your child smiling the first time you get to pages 8 and 9.  As you turn more pages, the smiles will turn to laughs.  And, as you continue to read, your child will appear to be dancing under the blanket.

        Wiggle Your Nose – Wiggle Your Toes combines the author’s firsthand knowledge of two key factors.  First, Burt has five children, nine grandchildren and five great grandchildren.  Second, he developed a unique sleep technique after an accident that fractured a vertebra.  At that time, he could hardly move and was unable to sleep.  After several weeks with limited body movement, Burt perfected a bed- bound routine that cleared his mind, minimized his pain and allowed him to fall into a long, deep sleep.

        This is Burt’s first children’s book.  It is written in a poetic form using a simple four-line rhyme scheme used at times by Dr. Seuss.

        Wiggle Your Nose – Wiggle Your Toes is the ideal book for parents, grandparents or day-care centers to read to children.  It’s also effective for older children that prefer to read by themselves.  It’s not surprising that teenagers and adults also find the book helps them relax and sleep better.

        Enjoy!
