What book are we talking about:
The book we are discussing in #KSPBookClub today is The Big Bed by Bunmi Laditan The book is published by Farrar, Straus and Giroux. Buy the book here.
What is this book about:
Every parent who has survived the toddler phase- knows exactly what it means by getting a good, quality sleep- 'coz we have never had it! From being kicked into the eye while deep in sleep to being pushed to the corner of the bed- let me tell you- there is no fun in sharing your bed with a toddler! Unlike newborns who don't plot and plan things (except maybe, wake up 18,273 times in the night), toddlers are super smart creatures who know how to go about what they want- mercilessly!
Bunmi Laditan– Internet's favourite mom and the creator of The Honest Toddler- is back with this latest book- one where she beautifully narrates how a smart little kid doesn't quite agree with the concept of co-sleeping and how dad needs to find his own bed elsewhere!
