Written by two brain experts, this STEM picture book is packed with fascinating science and fun facts about the importance of sleep that will have kids excited to get a good night's rest!

Go to sleep and grow your brain!

During the day, your brain helps you do things like eat, walk, play with friends, and learn new things―and using your brain helps it stretch and get stronger. But did you know that you have the power to grow and train your brain just by going to sleep? In fact, while you're resting, your brain is doing some of its most important work!

Learn about the important jobs your brain does at night like:

  • Locking in what you learned during the day
  • Resetting itself so that it's ready when you wake up
  • Even taking a bath to make sure it's clean and healthy!

Perfect for parents and educators, Good Night to Your Fantastic Elastic Brain is an excellent tool to teach kids about brain development, growth mindset, and the power of making healthy choices like getting enough sleep!

5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect book for curious kids!
Reviewed in the United States on April 7, 2022
I absolutely love this book! Goodnight to your Fantastic Elastic Brain does an excellent job explaining brain function and sleep to young children. My daughter is particularly interested in the brain and is often asking me many questions that this book answers. For parents it's also a great tool because it explains to children many of the reasons why sleep is important! This would be a great book to read before bed so kids feel ready and excited about getting a good nights sleep.
In the classroom this would be a great picture book to read with elementary aged kids. At a young age students will understand some of the broader ideas, while older children can understand more of the details. The illustrations are a great companion to the facts and information. The pictures make lots of confusing body functions tangible to children.
This book was such a delight! I can't wait until it's released so I can check it out of the library to read with my kids. Thanks to NetGalley and Sourcebook Kids for giving me this sneak peak of this ebook!

5.0 out of 5 stars What Happens After We Fall Asleep?
Reviewed in the United States on April 29, 2022
This book is a beautifully illustrated exploration of what happens to the human brain after we go to sleep. Good Night to Your Fantastic Elastic Brain gives a fun way for children to learn about the brain’s processes on their level and does a fantastic job of introducing new concepts and vocabulary. This book is packed with helpful facts and fascinating information for kids of all ages.

This book is perfect for that child who is always asking questions (especially right before bed time). Good Night to Your Fantastic Elastic Brain would be a great addition and resource for any elementary school or home library.

I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own. Thank you to Sourcebooks and the Early Reads program!

Some of the language is a little complex for my 6 year old daughters, but she has definitely taken on board some of the messages about why she needs to go to sleep at night. We will keep coming back to this book and she will understand more and more things as time goes on.
