Night Boy

By Anne Carter and Ninon Pelletier

Night is a boy who knows it's much more fun to play than go to sleep. When the sun sets, he travels through the night sky in a spaceship with his teddy. Night's favorite game is hide-and-go-seek, which he plays each evening with his older sister, Day. But why can't he ever find her? Night Boy is a unique playful picturebook about a brother and a sister named Night and Day. The rhythmic text and rich illustrations make for a bedtime story that is sure to lull children who say "I can't sleep" into dreamland. Through the personas of a brother and sister, Night Boy offers a unique explanation of how night turns to day astronomically.

[meditationesmartini · Rating: 3 out of 5 stars]

This is sweet and has a nice air of magic-ride exhilaration but not so much that your kid won't sleep. Tonight we fly! Chase the day!

What a lovely and beautiful book filled with such warmth and wonderfully illustrated. This is a must read for bed time. Genius!
