Gro Dahle
Good Night, Night

Illustrated by Svein Nyhus.

Good Night, Night is a collection of poetry and drawings that wish the world a good night. The poems are full of tenderness and love for everything from trees and houses to dogs and humans.

This is a book that comforts. It is a lullaby-book. A book that can be read over and over.

A beautiful and poetic book.
