In the Darkness of the Night takes readers through the sounds that a young child hears while curled up in bed waiting to fall asleep, from the familiar, reassuring noises of the family and the home, including muffled voices and humming pipes, to sounds from outdoors, like the snuffling and screeching of foxes. And then suddenly, what s that? Zoom! A car speeds by and a distant siren sounds.

"A stunningly illustrated picture book that introduces young readers to the importance of night as a time for animals to thrive, rains to fall, winds to blow and the world to rest."--
