Time for Bed, Miyuki - Roxane Marie Galliez, Seng Soun Ratanavanh

Review:

Time for Bed, Miyuki - Roxane Marie Galliez, Seng Soun Ratanavanh

Before Miyuki's grandfather can put her to bed there are a number of chores that must be done. There is an element of fantasy to the routine of chores and getting ready for bed that intrigues and charms. The mood is completely different, but it reminds me of Where the Wild Things Are.

The art is exquisite: beautifully patterned and shaped while also calming and serene through clever use of white space.
So lovely. I'm going to need to see all the Miyuki books now. Also, someone needs to make a Miyuki nursery using fabrics based on the patterns and incorporating some of the art into the aesthetic.
