Best Books 2015: Thank You and Good Night|Picture Books

Nov 24, 2015 | Filed in Reviews+
Three adorable animal friends convert a child’s bedtime routine into a fun pajama party. After lots of games and a little something good to eat, the friends wash and brush and snuggle together for stories, giving thanks and good-night kisses. The sweetly expressive and delightful pen-and-ink and watercolor artwork have the look and feel of classic picture books, to which McDonnell cleverly pays homage.
