Colorful and surprisingly detailed. I love the illustrations! ( ) Each page names a different type of light: night light, candlelight, lightning, etc. The illustrations tell the story, so it's a fun book for kids who struggle with reading, or who are in the earliest stages of reading, and want "to read" a book, but for them that still means that they look at pictures and verbalize their ideas, rather than fully reading line by line. The repetitive use of the tricky -igh sound lets early readers see the pattern many times over. The illustrations are unique-- they use foreground focal points to adjust perspective and cause viewers to imagine more of the story own their own. The first time I read it, I failed to recognize the sequenced nature of the illustrations-- it actually took a 7 year old to show me that there is, in fact, a story being told, but it's told through pictures alone. The differently named lights don't narrate; instead, the lights correspond with the progression of a story about a mom and daughter celebrating a dog's birthday BBQ. Do we really need yet another bedtime book? If it's Susan Gal's Night Lights, then yes, we do. The text is a simple list of lights at night; from streetlights to lightning, flashlights, fireflies, moonlight, and starlight. The illustrations are full of love and tender humor, as a little girl arrives home in the evening with her mother and enjoys the wonders of night lights. I love the contrast between the sketchy, shadowy art and the bright patterns on the walls and furniture, although my favorite spread would be the marshmallow-stealing raccoons caught in a porch spotlight. Or maybe the cozy reading in bed scene with homage to Gene Zion. Verdict: Delightful and perfect for winding down to bed with a young child or calming night-time fears.
