Hush, Baby Ghostling

(3) PS Illustrated by Pascal Lemaitre. A ghostling goes to bed when the sun comes up; he's frightened by children and laughter; and he finds monsters, nightmares, and darkness calming. Addressing these reverse fears through Mom's gentle reassurances, the verse offers a nice mixture of comfort and humor. In the digitally colored bamboo and ink illustrations, dark purples give way to oranges and pinks as "bedtime" approaches.
