Welcome to Storytime and Sparkle Dreams! I
love reading and sharing stories and especially storytime, and Storytime and
Sparkle Dreams is my way of sharing that love with you. For the first bedtime
story, I chose one of my favorites, Madeline.
I remember reading this book often when I was younger, and reading it now I
love it just as much, if not more.
Madeline tells about a
strong little French girl. She is fearless- to the big, scary tiger in the zoo,
she only says “pooh-pooh!” I wanted to be as strong as she is, both in this
book and the series that follows. My favorite part is, without a doubt, Ludwig
Bemelmans’ beautiful illustrations. I don’t think showing them in the video
truly does them justice. The book features beautiful pictures of Paris and
yellowy pictures of the girls and Miss Clavel in their lines that add to the
story for both readers and non-readers alike.

I loved looking at them when my mother read
Madeline to me, and I love looking at them when I read the story to someone
else.
Madeline is one of my favorite stories. What
are some of your favorite stories? If I can find one of your favorites in my library, I might
read it for another bedtime story!
Have a good sleep, and
sparkle dreams, and we’ll read together again soon!
