While Everyone is Sleeping

Oh, how beautiful this book is! While Everyone Is Sleeping is a brand new book written by Sarah Mackenzie and illustrated by Gabrielle Grimard that has all of the charm and beauty of the older books we love so much. This delightful picture book is a joy to read and a delight to behold.

When everyone has gone to bed and the moon has risen, Little Shrew feels the beckoning call of the night into the garden.

With anticipation and trepidation, Little Shrew leaves her house and goes out into the garden.

But it is dark outside and the shadows make Little Shrew uneasy. Nonetheless, she pushes on. And what she discovers is marvelous. Not everyone is sleeping. In fact, Little Shrew discovers a magical world bathed in moonlight, wide awake, and full of wonder.

Little Shrew dances with the night critters and delights in the beauty of this otherwise hidden world.

This lovely story is a joy to read and would be perfect as the last book just before bedtime.
