Reviews
PreSchool-- Stars are sprinkled across a black sky, with crescent moon on high, as one by one a cat, a monkey, a camel, a dog, a seagull, and a bear appear singly against an appropriate backdrop, then reappear to form a procession. The question is asked, and repeated, where do they go when night comes? The answer each time: they are on their way home. The warmth engendered by the simple text envelops readers in a blanket of coziness and reassurance. The final scenes reveal that all of the animals are actually stuffed toys cuddled around a sleeping little boy, and, indeed, they are home. The text appears in white against a black page framed with Amish quilt colors. The color pencil pictures are naif, uncluttered, with just enough detail to engage sleepy readers. A thoroughly beguiling bedtime book which will assure many snuggly tucked in children contented dreams. --Phyllis G. Sidorsky, National Cathedral School, Washington, D . C .

This is a deceptively simple, wonderfully appealing bedtime book--reminiscent of Eve Rice's Goodnight Goodnight --which will connect with even the most restless toddler. In a series of simple questions ("When the lights go down / On the city street / Where does the white cat go, honey? / Where does the white cat go?"), Weiss introduces a cat, a monkey, a camel, a stray dog, a seagull and a brown bear. All are "on their way . . . on their way home." Finally, "The stars are bright and a warm wind blows / Through the window tonight, honey, / Through the window tonight / . . . And everyone is home." Weiss shows a boy snuggled in bed under a quilt surrounded by all his animals. Although her palette runs to dark tones, Weiss's pastels are warm and glowing on black backgrounds sprinkled with twinkling stars. Infused with warmth, this book grows better with each reading. Ages 2-up.
