Goodnight, You by Geneviève Côté

lighthearted fast-paced
  • Loveable characters? Yes

4.75

The story is very cute and the characters are sweet, but my only issue is the font used for Piggy's speech. I was reading this book with the 6-year-old I tutor and she already has a hard enough time with telling the difference between I's and L's (and paying attention to the words in general), but Piggy's font makes exclamation marks look like lowercase L's and it even confused me for a moment.

Regardless of that one nitpick, we had fun once we figured that out. I liked how this book addressed the fear of the dark and tried to offer a different way of imagining it.
