Ages 2-5. A barn owl flies around a farm as night falls, bidding good night to animals, a tractor, and more. The book's large trim size accommodates a fair amount of text, and Hegarty's long-for-the-format rhymes allow readers to settle into the sleepy mood she establishes: "The shadows grow long, as darkness falls./ In the stable, the horses shift in their stalls./ Snuffling and snorting, they whinny and neigh,/ and whisper good night at the end of the day." Elliott's cozy artwork is well-suited to the tone and mood of the verse, and tactile elements (fur for various animals, the denim of a scarecrow's overalls, etc.) bring a gentle interactive note to this comforting bedtime book.--Publishers Weekly
Baby-Toddler--An owl flies around the farm saying good night to different animals in this charming bedtime book. Rhyming verse follows Owl as she stops in to check on different animals. The muted blue-green palette evokes a soothing feeling but makes the text difficult to read on certain pages. Each spread features a touch-and-feel aspect, which, combined with the gentle rhymes, will quickly make this a favorite bedtime read.--School Library Journal
