Barnett, Mac. Noisy Night, PICTURE BOOK. Roaring Book Press, 2017. $16.99.
We go up and up and up a high rise apartment building as we hear all the sounds being made above one little boy’s head. First he hears a la-la-la and we see an opera singer singing loudly. Later, it’s some cowboys laughing haw-haw-haw. At the very end it’s an old man demanding for quiet so that he can go to sleep.
I love this. The progression from floor to floor, with rhyming words for each sound that is made, are really outstanding. It flows together well and the noise-makers are unique and interesting. It also works well going from youth to the elderly man at the end.
