I loved how “Good Morning Harry, Good Night Daddy” showed what was going on with the characters simultaneously. It was a sweet story and good for fans of trains.

Daddy works on the night train and the story is about how Harry's night goes and how Daddy's night goes.
Illustrations are beautiful.

Thanks to netgalley and the publisher

I read the ARC from NetGalley.

The book has great illustrations and also interesting story.

It's about Harry and Daddy daily life, things they do everyday. Also, how they connected in such a sweet way.

'Good Morning, Harry - Good Night, Daddy' tells the story of young Harry and gran who head home to get ready for bed, whilst Harry's daddy's day is just getting started, in his work as an overnight train conductor. The story alternates page by page between Harry's story and his daddy's, showing their nighttime routines as parallels. It's a really nice delightful read with beautiful watercolour illustrations, which ends with daddy coming home to see Harry. It's a simple story but very enjoyable.
-side, finally coming together in a sweet ending that will delight both parents and kids.

Cute story, nothing out of the ordinary, but it bring the notion of night working, and there, it can be use to explain to a child why is night working and why his mom or dad has to go away at night to work.

I received a digital copy of this book from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

A split view day in the life story about Harry, and his father. The story starts off with Harry and his family getting settled in for the evening, while Harry's father leave for his overnight job as a train attendant. The story continues throughout the night and into the morning showing a split view of what Harry and his father are up to, ending with their reunion in the morning. A very sweet story, with beautiful illustrations that come together to create a must have children's story.

Daddy works night on the train from London. Harry sleeps nights. How their days differ as each waits for the other is the focus of this story. I like the story because it focuses on the happy. However I wish it had an answer to the question why. Why does daddy work nights, etc.
