274. Tucked In by Meredith Gaston

BOOK REVIEW: Tucked In by Meredith Gaston

Quirky illustrations, pastel colours and soft drawings are mainstays as far as attractive books go. I was pulled by this book's charm just by looking at the front cover. Being all about the art of sleeping and all things bed and comfort-related, its no wonder that the book has to warm the cockles of one's heart.

Bed needn't be a place just for sleeping. Whether you are young or old, nimble or wobbly, tucked into bed on the doctor's orders or on your very own whim, you can use your time in bed to explore your creativity and heal your soul.

The author, who is an artist and passionate lover of all things bed, encourages us to discover that our tucked-in time can be as creative as it is restorative, enriching our days and bringing joy to our lives.

We learn how to analyse our dreams and find out what our sleeping positions reveal about our personalities, as well as creating our own tucked-in haiku poetry, comfort foods and dream catchers.

Simply snuggle back, relax, and be guided through a world of tea cup cosies, shadow puppets, favourite bed socks and eclectic sleepy facts. 

The perfect gift for the bedbound or balm for the world-weary, this book is sure to uplift, soothe and inspire. Even throughout the book, the author's drawings are sure to put a smile on your face. I'm sure you'll love this book as much as I did.
