ΣΥΓΓΡΑΦΕΑΣ
Mari Kanstad Johnsen
EIΚΟΝΟΓΡΑΦΟΣ“Translated from Norwegian, the story is delightful and enforces how savvy caregivers can direct and encourage learning, even in quiet moments when children are brushing their teeth or climbing into bed. The mixed-media illustrations, however, steal the show. With a bold fluidity of hand-drawn lines, vibrant colors, and the occasional hint of the cheeky humor that made Maurice Sendak and Tomi Ungerer famous, Johnsen creates a lush world that children will want to study night after night. The combination of text and illustration transforms into something sublime. Don’t sleep on this book; it’s magnificent!” —Kirkus Reviews
”An original ‘Good Night’ book that meets the child at eye level… The playful interaction between child and adult is exemplary, and so is the interaction between text and image… The drawings enter the space of the imagination and transform mother and son, first into parrots that flutter out into the kitchen, then into several other animals, and everything follows its own logic while the two gradually play until the child falls asleep… The child’s resistance is met with warmth, humor and play, curiosity and wonder… The book takes the children who are being read to—and who are going to bed themselves—very seriously, as they try to enter its imaginary world.” —Norwegian Book Prize Jury
“Over the course of a pre-bed snack, bath time, tooth-brushing, and tuck-in, Mommy and child Bo insert wildlife-filled adventure into their routine… Johnsen’s multicolored drawings have a loosely rendered, busy feel; jam-packed domestic scenes overflow with creatures, toys, and a rambunctious energy that make this volume a ‘wild’ read.” —Publishers Weekly
“Deep into twilight, imaginative Bo is enjoying himself too much to want to wind down and get ready for sleep. His mother makes him dinner and draws a bath; they exchange thoughts about all the ways that other animals doze. Oh- oh!: here comes a yawn, despite Bo’s best intentions. In this soothing bedtime story, the appealing illustrations play with melting lines, stacked details, elongated faces, and bright, saturated colors—flourishes certain to mesmerize young audiences as they prepare to fly off to dreamland themselves.” —Foreword Reviews
