Time for Margot to Go to Bed: A fun picture book about friendship, caring, and the need for acceptance

Wrote a review for

Our (me and my son) first book of real pictures of animals but with them talking. Book like this usually use illustrations but this book uses real photographs of rodents, birds, and other animals. There are brackets of their conversations. It was actually so creative but some of the editing photos were tacky. Though since this is my son's book and he enjoyed it so much, it was what matter the most.


The story was also refreshing. Margot, the groundhog, was about to sleep for the winter. But she was sad because she might miss her friends. So she and her friends were thinking together on how to make Margot not sad again and she could sleep peacefully that winter.

The friendship and helping each other, I think, were the main messages of this book. Fortunately my son could easily grasp those messages.

I think this book would be on our reread shelf for quit sometimes since the idea of using real photographs of the animals was still so refreshing for us.


Thank you to Lieve Snellings, BooksGoSocial, and NetGalley for the ARC.
