Product Description |
|
There is no night so dark, so black as night in the country. And while the people dream of daytime things, the nighttime world awakens. Owls swoop, a rabbit patters, and in the yard an apple falls -- pump! -- from the tree. Listen. Go to the window. Across the field a light glows. Who else is up so late? Who else watches and hears the sights and sounds of night in the country -- the many stirrings of silence, the many colors of the dark? Lyrical text and velvety pictures present a very different kind of nighttime: a mysterious, moving night that will lull small children to sleep. |

Spring for the Hardcover |
|
Beautiful illustrations. Our grandsons moved to the city two years ago and now are afraid of the night sounds in the country. This book helped them lighten up. |

Beautiful book -- my son and I love it |
|
This is a good before-bedtime book. The illustrations are beautiful and the story is good. It keeps my five-year-old's attention well, and most books do not. |

great book |
|
I bought this book b/c it was recommended by the nwf wildlife baby magazine. It was a great buy for us, my 21 month old wants to read it with me over and over again. |

sweet story about nighttime in the country |
|
Rylant talks about all the interesting things one might hear during a night in the country and at the end brings it back around to letting those things hear us during the day. I think this is a perfect book for children aged 2-6. My two year old seemed to like the illustrations and story and I like how the book itself presents the simple and fascinating things you can hear at night if you'll only pay attention. |
