The House in the Night by Susan Marie Swanson (Caldecott Medal)


There is something very calming about this book that would make it a great nighttime/bedtime read.  The House in the Night is a cummulative bedtime verse about the light shining from a house in the night.  Objects mentioned in the story all have a place, making the world seem orderly and that everything is right where it is supposed to be right before bedtime. Sounds great, doesn't it?  The fact that I don't like going to sleep at night before my house in neat and tidy might have something to do with how much I liked the book.
