One of my favorite kids writers and one of the world's greatest kids illustrators. Together. Great.

The Dark is a mysterious thing that is always around. You can't see it all the time, but it's there. Lazlo tried to befriend the Dark, so he wouldn't visit Lazlo in his room.
Wow! What an amazing look at children and their fear of the dark. I truly hope this story helps readers with their fear of the dark. The Dark can be frightful, but it's needed and useful. Well done, Lemony Snicket, Jon Klassen, Susan Rich, Patti Ann Harris, Charlotte Veaney, and Barbara Bakowski.

Costed me a bit of money (and my boyfriend thought I was a bit crazy to buy it for that price, even I thought I was crazy a bit), but it is more then worth it. Lemony Snicket (my favourite author) and Jon Klassen (one of my favourite illustrators) working together. :)
Loved this book. :)

You know how some picture books simply beg to be read aloud? This is certainly one of them. Snicket has written a delightful story of a little boy exploring the dark. The art by Jon Klassen is gorgeous and has a lovely color palette and use of textured effects. I hope these two collaborate again.

I wanted a bit more from this duo. But it was clever, and oddly comforting.

Simple, yet ambiguous.
I loved the concept of this book! The illustrations suited it perfectly. Not once did it feel like it was trying to manipulate the child into be less afraid of the dark -- although that is the obvious message.
