Welcome, Dark

Key Selling Points This is a bedtime book that focuses on how wild and active nighttime can be. This story celebrates some of the scariest parts of night for young children: darkness and the sounds of wind and rain. It lets caregivers emphasize the importance of these natural elements in helping our world live and grow. By exchanging the common "good night" bedtime formula for "welcome," children are invited to embrace everything that is exciting and mysterious about the world at night. The illustrator won the Elizabeth Mrazik-Cleaver Canadian Picture Book Award in 2019 and the Freeman Book Award for Children's Literature in East and Southeast Asia.
