IMAGINE A NIGHT

Thomson, S.L. (2003). Imagine a night. New York: Byron Preiss Publications, Inc. 


Plot Summary
Based on a series of paintings by Rob Gonzalvez, Imagine a night is a rhyming bedtime book that encourages the reader to imagine a night....to the theme of the images on each page.

Evaluation
This book has beautiful, rick images, however the text that accompanies each image does not harmoniously flow. It is apparent that the text was written after the completion of the images. I think that this book is one of those children's books that is primarity meant for an adult audience. I think that a child would enjoy the images, however, when truly considered, the text and the images are slightly haunting. I would not recommend that it be read at bedtime, as the title suggests.
