Unwrapping Some Illustrations for You
















The Book



This is a sweet bedtime story, a rhyming prayer, that is perfect to settle little ones before they drift off to Dreamland.  The easy flow of the words are calming and a beautiful way to quiet little ones hearts and position them for a lovely night's sleep.  The book acknowledges God's love and blessings He has for us.  


The illustrations are soft and whimsical depicting adorable animals that young children can relate to and will love.  It's a positive, feel good book that releases happy pleasant thoughts into the spirit.  This book would make a wonderful gift for a newborn, a baptism or an anytime event.  It is a celebration of the blessings that surround us all.  


"One more thing before I dream...

Thank you, God, for everything!


Thank you, God, for family dear

helpers, teachers far and near


Thank you, God for friends and fun.

Memory making, rain or sun"



 I highly recommend "Thank You God Good Night".

Meet the Author





Bestselling author Marianne Richmond has touched the lives of millions over the past two decades through her delightful picture books that give voice to the heart and help you connect with the people you love.


For 16 years, Marianne ran her own publishing company, winding down in 2010 to make way for a partnership with Sourcebooks, Inc., one of the leading and largest independent publishers in North America. Since then, she has traveled the country, reading to and speaking with thousands of children about celebrating their own voice and stories. Though Publisher's Weekly calls her "an author on the rise," Richmond's favorite letter is from an elementary school teacher who said, "I feel like a better me after reading your books."


Marianne lives in Franklin, TN with her husband, four kids, and one beloved dog, Otis.
