Biography
Melody Carlson has written more than 200 books (with sales around 6.5 million) for teens, women and children. That's a lot of books, but mostly she considers herself a "storyteller." Her novels range from serious issues like schizophrenia (Finding Alice) to lighter topics like house-flipping (A Mile in My Flip-Flops) but most of the inspiration behind her fiction comes right out of real life. Her young adult novels (Diary of a Teenage Girl, TrueColors etc.) appeal to teenage girls around the world. Her annual Christmas novellas become more popular each year. She's won a number of awards (including Romantic Time's Career Achievement Award, the Rita and the Gold Medallion) and some of her books have been optioned for film/TV. Carlson has two grown sons and makes her home in the Pacific Northwest with her husband and yellow Lab dog. To find out more about Melody Carlson, visit her website at http://www.melodycarlson.com/
My Review ~
Goodnight, Angel is a precious story to be read to toddlers at bedtime. It's a wonderful way for a child to say goodnight to all of the things he might encounter at the end of the day. Also included is a brief prayer of thanks to God, helpful in instilling a bedtime prayer habit. Melody Carlson has done a wonderful job of reaching toddlers in ways they can relate to and understand. The illustrations are sweet and colorful. I highly recommend this delightful book, well written and meaningful.
