New Bedtime Read: Trouble in Space Caption:

We added a new book to our nighttime routine and it was a hit! Trouble in Space by @Children’s Book Author~Kirsten is such a fun, engaging read that kept my daughter’s attention while still being the perfect wind-down story before bed.

It has that balance every parent hopes for—entertaining enough to keep little ones interested, but calm enough to ease into sleep. Definitely a book we’ll be reaching for again and again.

If you’re looking to refresh your bedtime rotation, this one is worth adding. And if you love discovering new children’s authors, be sure to check out and support Kirsten Stratton!

... Read moreAdding "Trouble in Space" to our bedtime routine has been a delightful experience, capturing my child's imagination while also helping her wind down for the night. The book's unique ability to maintain excitement without overstimulation is a rare quality in children’s literature, making it perfect for helping little ones transition smoothly into sleep. What stands out most about "Trouble in Space" is its balance between adventure and calm. The story introduces an outer space setting filled with gentle challenges and fun characters that hold kids’ attention without creating anxiety or restlessness. This makes the book useful for parents who want a soothing yet engaging read that doesn’t disrupt the bedtime atmosphere. From my experience, the storytelling pace is just right, allowing children to feel involved but not overwhelmed. The illustrations and text work harmoniously to create a cozy and imaginative environment. This can be especially beneficial in establishing a consistent bedtime routine, which is important for children’s sleep quality. Additionally, supporting independent authors like Kirsten Stratton enriches our reading choices with fresh perspectives and meaningful stories. These books often bring unique voices and creativity that mainstream titles might lack. If you enjoy discovering new children’s authors, "Trouble in Space" is an excellent find to diversify your library. Incorporating this book into nightly stories can encourage a love for reading while contributing positively to children’s bedtime habits. If your household is looking to refresh its book lineup, I highly recommend giving "Trouble in Space" a try. It’s a wonderful way to combine learning, imagination, and relaxation before lights out.

I never take sleep for granted. 💤 In 2014 I started my sophomore year of college and I stopped sleeping. It was awful. I tried sleeping with a fan, with no sound, and any sleep remedy I could find. I even tried exhausting myself by walking around the dorm. I thought I was going to lose my mind.
