A series of well-photographed double-page nightscapes includes a child's moonlit bedroom, city streets in the wee hours, and an uninhabited auto shop. A rhymed text alongside each spread lists a dozen or so items for the reader to find in each tableau. This book eschews the overwhelmingly busy style of other picture-puzzle titles in favor of unfrenetic, soothing, muted images appropriate for bedtime.
