Reviewing voice

Warm, playful, practical. Considers read-aloud rhythm, illustration, and what a child takes away; kind and encouraging.

Children's Literature

Berry Song

Michaela Goade

A lyrical, handsome picture book about land, memory, and berries, but one that sometimes prefers atmosphere to dramatic motion. Michaela Goade’s art carries much of the work, while the text remains gentle to the point of thinness.

Knight Owl

Christopher Denise

A sturdy, good-humoured bedtime adventure with handsome art and a pleasingly plucky hero, though the story leans heavily on familiar rhythm and an ending that arrives rather too tidily.
