The Night (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9780735846289)

From the award-winning illustrator of Professional Crocodile comes a gorgeously atmospheric wordless fairytale adventure filled with new friends, starry skies, and a little bit of magic.

It's a classically rainy night at home with the babysitter, and two siblings are itching for a little nighttime adventure. Inspired by the Brothers Grimm's fairy tale Hansel and Gretel, the siblings sneak out of the house and into the inky night.

Unlike the well-known fairy tale, the siblings's nighttime romp through the woods is full of wonder and fun, even a new friend! Their magical friend guides the duo across streams and through open fields, not unlike the fauns of Greek mythology, to partake in the splendor of the night. And as the moon gives way to sun, so is it time for the kids to return home where beds--and Mom!--wait.

Mariachiara Di Giorgio's lushly illustrated, wordless tale is akin to a modern-day fairy tale and perfect for reading on the darkest of nights. After all, there is so much beauty to discover hidden in the darkness. What will you find?
