The Night Is Deep and Wide - Board Book
by Gillian Sze (Author), Gillian Sze (Illustrator)
★ "A lovely visual lullaby to soothe youngest readers to sleep."--Publishers Weekly, starred review
Rich imagery, gentle rhythm and soothing repetition will lull your little one to sleep as the tulips close for the night, one by one. In this bedtime story written as an Italian villanelle, poet Gillian Sze makes use of the poetic forms of cyclic pattern and rhyme scheme to create a melodious lullaby. A young child comes in from picking flowers as the creatures around their home all settle down for the evening. Songbirds curl against their mothers' sides, the house slumps and sighs low, a hush settles as times slows. And little readers are invited to rest their heads and be soothed to sleep as moonlight falls on eyes that close.At the heart of every product lies a unique story, driven by our passion for quality and innovation.
