Hello, friends! Today, we read Good Night, Baddies, written by Deborah Underwood and illustrated by Juli Kangas, a delightfully fun bedtime rhyme for naughty fairytale villains.

At the end of the day, after fighting heroes and doing their wicked work, even baddies need to wind down. They catch up with friends, have a relaxing dinner, take a bath, read a book, even check under the bed for princesses! And after a lullaby, even baddies will drift off to sleep, and will hopefully dream (sour) dreams.

This was a really cute play on the typical bedtime story, and had some adorably silly laughs. I loved that all the baddies lived together in one castle, sharing their bedtime routines and taking care of one another – hilariously sweet. The art is wonderful, filled with its own humor and tons of charm. JJ enjoyed it, and the length was great, so this is a perfect book to show little ones that, yes, everyone has a bedtime, even the naughtiest among us. We really enjoyed this one, and it is Baby Bookworm approved!
