Nightsong
Sally Soweol Han
After a big day in the noisy city, Lewis and his mother are heading home. But on the way, their bus breaks down. With artwork in a velvety, limited palette with pops of colour and playful text throughout, this is a joyful story about listening to the world around you.
‘A celebration of nature and curiosity. This beautiful book will be a popular resource for teaching onomatopoeia.’
‘Sally Soweol Han is an extremely talented creator. Her illustrations, like her words, are something really special … Nightsong is a magical picture book. One I suspect will be adored by kids, parents and teachers everywhere.’
‘This gentle but lively story reminds readers that where things might appear dull and boring, it’s the act of paying attention that uncovers the beauty of nature.’
