The Insomniacs

32 pp. | Putnam | August, 2012 | Trade ISBN 978-0-399-25665-3 $16.99
(3) K-3 Illustrated by Ben Hilts & Sean Hilts. When nothing helps the Insomniacs adjust after a twelve-time-zone move, the family of three decides to start living during the nighttime and sleeping during the day. The unusual story and the subdued pencil, charcoal, and digital art--recalling that of Edward Gorey and Tim Burton--mesh perfectly, creating a quiet mood ideal for bedtime reading.
Reviewer: Cynthia K. Ritter
