I want to win this giveaway because the book look really cute, so I think the children in the family would want to read it. I’ve also read reviews for this book elsewhere and the other reviewers highly recommended it. Kids in the family love books, so I know they would enjoy it. The sleep training alarm clock looks really neat, too.
I would love to win this for my 5 kids. They love books about dragons and even my almost 17 year old enjoys reading these types of books to her younger siblings.
Book looks amazing and a lot of fun. And who doesn’t need more books to help with bedtime?
Charlotte loves to be read to every night and silly books are her favorites. We just love books!

My 2 grandsons would love this delightful book and treasure it. What a beaut.
My son would love this prize package! He uses excuses that he needs to go potty or that he wants more cuddles to escape bed time! lol
Keeping dragons happy and well-rested is definitely one of the important issues of our time!

My oldest son has a million excuses. One time he was like a watchdog & needed to stay awake for our protection.
The kids use every excuse in the world to fight sleeping. Books are their favorite to read before bed and that helps them drift off.
I get the “I’m hungry” & “I’m thirsty” almost every night, but the one used most often is “I wanna ask Mommy a question!” Ha!
This is perfect great for the kiddos spending most of the days home and my children love to read they would be so excited to win. Thanks stay safe and well
I would love to win b/c we need all the help that we can get with bedtime.
I would love to win this for my little “dragon” who always resists going to sleep!
Once my daughter is fed her bedtime bottle she will wave her dada goodbye. She will then be playful with her mama to avoid going to bed. My “dragon” has a severe case of FOMO!
My great niece loves books and I think she would enjoy it a lot. Don’t have any bedtime avoid stories but I do have few nap times stores. And I have saw a lot of pictures of where she has crashed because she didn’t want or need to go to bed.
I want to win this book as a gift for a special dragon in my life.
I would like to win this giveaway so that I can gift it to my daughter. Thanks for the giveaway!

I’m sure I’ve heard every excuse at least once. The best had to be but don’t you wanna go back to bed to Mom
I would love to win this for my daughter.
This sounds like a cute book. I would give it to my niece. My daughter has come up with a lot of excuses not to go to bed even saying she needed to clean up her room before she went to bed.
My great niece would love the book don’t know her sleep habit. But I do know that she fights to not sleep in her own bed.
The most common excuse from my son at bedtime is “I’m hungry”. Nine times out of ten, he’s fallen asleep with whatever food I give him in his hand. It’s like he confuses hunger with exhaustion.
This would be great for my students
This would be great for my students to read during guided reading block
My granddaughter always wants more food when bedtime is mentioned. She also stalls by putting all her animal friends to bed first.
Excellent books!
I would love to win the sleep training alarm clock for my nephew and use the gift card to buy a couple of books.
My niece, and great nieces, and I I love dragons! I know this would be a great addition to our home library.
My grandson could really use this clock. He’s a very erratic sleeper.
I would love to win this for my granddaughter. with her parents being military, they often go through “sleep” theatrics with each move or deployment.
I want this for my granddaughters. They hate going to sleep.
