Tucked into bed after a long day of playing, Anna's imagination brings her to her favorite park--enhanced with magical qualities she's never seen before--in Joanne Ryder's exciting bedtime tale. When the park lamps glow, Anna knows it's time to leave the old stone lion, the pigeons, and the shy goldfish that keep her company during the daylight.
As the bedtime approaches and her father shuts off her light, Anna's imagination takes flight and brings her back to the park she loves. But in the cover of night, the park is now magical and filled with friendly crocodiles, energetic monkeys, and a lion who takes Anna to his secret waterfall.
"With flattened perspectives and variegated tones, Schwartz paints, like Rousseau, a primitive world of friendly beasts and tangled vegetation." -
