The little boy can't fall asleep. Then there's a scratching at the door: the Night Creature enters the room. Together, they embark on a journey through the night, out of the city, ever further, across the sea and over the mountains, all the way to the moon. At the end of the journey, sleep finally arrives - along with the cozy, comforting presence of the Night Creature. The new picture book by Jens Rassmus captures its nighttime story in captivating rhythmic verses. Delicate, glazed illustrations open up vast visual worlds, while the Night Creature is painted softly and warmly in acrylic. A book like a dream: quiet, very appealing, and magically beautiful.
