Good Night California: 05/06/14

I remember books and places together. I remember the place I was when I read a book. Sometimes it's the place I remember first. Good Night California by Adam Gamble will forever be linked to Christmas morning, 2013.

The book belongs to my nephew. We were at his house to open presents and while we were waiting for things to start, I borrowed his board book and read it.

Good Night California, as the title implies, is an homage to Goodnight Moon. It's part of a series of state themed books, giving children a chance to say goodnight to their home state.

The book covers a bunch of landmarks and different times of day. As we live about 500 miles away (but in the same state) as our nephew, a book like this is a nice way for us to connect.

Four stars
