Join Daphne on the adventure of a lifetime — a joyful, sun-soaked journey through the beautiful island of Barbados! From the moment her plane touches down to the warm island breeze, Daphne's vacation is full of wonder: building sandcastles on soft white sand, snorkeling past a friendly sea turtle and a sunken shipwreck, wandering past colorful chattel houses, and discovering a magical sea cave where the ocean rushes in. She spots flying fish leaping over sparkling waves, meets mischievous green monkeys in a garden of giant flowers, rides a tram through a glowing underground cave, and tastes her first cheesy macaroni pie at a lively Bajan market. There's a birthday celebration with cake and ice cream, dancing under the stars at Oistins, and a golden sunset that melts into the sea before Daphne is finally tucked in — dreaming of mermaids, turtles, and all the magic of Barbados.
Warm, rhythmic, and richly illustrated, Goodnight Barbados is a bedtime story that celebrates family, friendship, and the beauty of Bajan culture. Perfect for little ones who love travel, ocean adventures, and stories that end with a big island hug.
Inspired by a real family trip to Barbados, this heartfelt picture book is a keepsake for any family who has fallen in love with the island — or who dreams of visiting one day.
