Review

As the moon comes up with his sleeping cap and the sun goes down, the sheep get counted, clouds are fluffed, stars tap dance on moon beams and bubble helmet cows try to land safely on the moon. Other night-time phenomenon like glittery fireflies, friendly ghosts, nocturnal raccoons and dew drops frolic in the night in brightly, digitized ground level view illustrations that provide texture, humor and extra details. Each character have humorous details that make simple text charming and engaging. A must read for story times about night.

Overall Book Score: good
