Bedtime stories play an important role in your child's development.Not only do bedtime stories create an opportunity to increase the closeness between parents and their kids，but reading a little one at the same time night after night can help them form a healthy sleep routine.Child psychologists also point to the cognitive(认知的) benefits for young people who are raised with bedtime stories，including the higher-than-average ability to read and write and an emotional connection to reading.Let's look at some of the most popular bedtime storybooks that are available in print.
