I'm
continuing down the 'night' trail today. (What fun this has been)!
Little
Owl's Night, by Divya Srinivasan is a lovely journey through the
forest at night. Just who is active, and what do they have to say?
For
an old style 'inter-active' book, one in which you create the
activity without microchips, etc. try Touch the Brightest Star,
by Christie Matheson. Read it out loud (I read it to my dog), follow
the instructions, it's fun! At the back is an explanation of the
magic of the night: fireflies, stars, owls .... very nice.
And,
of course, Goodnight Moon, by Margaret Wise Brown. Love it?
Hate it? I have had both reactions from parents who have read it
over and over and over ... but my favorite response was from Tall
Reader who had a smile on her face and a faraway look in her eye. It
has been published in several languages, and inspired many parodies.
Other
books about night (from 2014) may be found on the August 16 and
September 26 posts.
