Episode 3348: EVERYONE IS ASLEEP BUT ME by Diana Yacobi and Lily Safrani

from This Week in America with Ric Bratton · host Ric Bratton

Everyone is Asleep but Me by Diana Yacobi and Lily SafraniThe starting point of this little story was a conversation with my daughter, Lily. Her son was no longer sleeping in a crib and was getting used to a junior bed. He went through a period of waking up very early, around 5:30 in the morning, and coming to his parents bedroom. Needless to say, she was tired and annoyed with the whole situation. In one of our phone conversations, I thought a story approach might help. Most of the story is exactly the story I told her spontaneously on the phone. I wrote it down and sent it to her. Once I shared the story with friends, the pictures were inevitable. Everyone Is Asleep but Me is dedicated to my grandchildren Erez, Maya, Ethan, and Milan who inspired the story. These days, they're all great sleepers! Sleepy Bear wakes up during the night and finds that his ball, train and lion are sleeping. He looks in on his parents and who are also deep asleep. There is no room in their bed for him to join them. Sleepy Bear returns to his bed and discovers that it is so warm and cozy. The next day he is full of energy and so proud that he slept the WHOLE night in his own bed!Diana has always been involved with children, as a Mom, Educational Director of synagogue schools and as a grandmother. During her educator years she wrote a Hebrew reading curriculum, Read Hebrew Now available on Amazon as Sarah and David Hebrew Books. It is used by teachers, tutors, home school families, synagogues and anyone interested in learning to read and write Hebrew. Diana is very happy that the collaboration with Lily continues with this little bear in their first children's story book.Amazon LinkWebsite Linkwww.readhebrewnow.com   https://olympusstoryhouse.com/
