by Uri Shulevitz This beautiful book is the perfect bedtime story for little ones. It has a brief, repetitive text that starts out with a very sleepy house in a sleepy landscape. Everything within the house is asleep, from the cuckoo-clock to the dishes to the cat. Soft music drifts in and becomes louder and louder. The sleepy boy and everything in the house gradually wake up to join the music in a lively dance. Then when the music gradually fades away, everything goes back to sleep. The wonderful illustrations begin with a night-time darkness, and when the music plays, the colors gradually brighten to lively daytime colors, and then fade away again as the household goes back to sleep. The very expressive faces that everything wears set the tone for the story, ending on a peaceful note that will ready your little one for bedtime... a story to be read over and over. |
