Author Brooks and Illustrator Wilson have produced a delightful
work for children. Creatures of the Night is a 32 page
picture type work. The narrative is told in verse. Illustrations
are child friendly. While the target audience for the Creatures of the Night is more targeted to the 3 – 7 set, it is a work that holds appeal to the 8 – 10 group as they choose a book to read to younger brothers and sisters. Creatures of the Night is a read-to for the younger set ages 3 – 7, a read alone for the 8 – 10 group. I too enjoyed the narrative, the illustrations and the poetry. Because I live ‘out in the country’ the critters mentioned in this book are all very familiar to me. I am finding Creatures of the Night to be a worthwhile addition to our class library shelf. Creatures of the Night is being taken for ‘free reading’ time by youngsters who are reading and enjoying it for themselves as they ready themselves to read to the kindergarten children each Monday.
Creatures of the Night is a good addition to the homeschool
reading curriculum, the classroom library and children’s
personal reading shelf. |
