TOP TEN CHILDREN’S BEDTIME STORIES
Children today have so many technological ways to communicate and gather information. These activities are basically done on a solo basis, even though they may be communicating with their friends. Can you think of a better way to put your children to sleep then by reading them a bedtime story? This allows for "mommy and/or daddy and me time." The time together is for tucking in and bonding.
Listed below are the top ten books to read before putting your child to sleep.

The only time when he really cried out "wolf" and meant it, nobody came to his rescue because they thought it was another of his jokes.
