Bedtime Story by Chloe Hooper

emotional hopeful informative inspiring reflective medium-paced

5.0

This book truly shows a mother's love to put the needs and protection of her children before her own. We don't see much of the authors feelings regarding the terrible disease that her husband is facing. We read more about her fears and feelings of how to tell her children. 

I felt everything all the way through the book, it isn't one that warrants star ratings or a lengthy review.. how can I comment on what was one of the authors worst times of her life. How can we rate a journey of sickness and of grief. 

All I can say is that I felt so privileged that the author wanted to share this journey of a part of her life with us. The words were powerful and intense right the way through. The memoir holds so much beauty between these pages from a parents love to seeking guidance from children's books in the hope of them having the answers to help her guide her children through a traumatic event. 

Such a moving memoir.
