This is a great book for primary students. This book goes through the night time routine of a child and how she would rather sleep outside than in her home. She is drawn to the breeze and feeling of outdoors.

"At Night" is a realistic fiction book that depicts a young girl's difficulty in falling asleep. It can be a valuable resource in promoting imagination and storytelling in the classroom. One idea is to have students work in pairs or small groups to create their own stories about a nighttime walk, using the illustrations in the book as inspiration. Students can incorporate their own ideas and imagination into their stories. To share their stories with the class, students can read them aloud or act them out. This activity can help students enhance their creativity and develop their storytelling skills. Good for primary school age. ( )

This beautiful book, with its simple sentences will appeal to anyone who has tried to fall asleep the sounds of their home, which include snoring, and night noises. I especially appreciate the solution, which is supported by her mother. ( )

A girl can't fall asleep in her bed, so she takes her pillow and blankets up to the roof, where the night air allows her to go to sleep. ( )

This realistic fiction book presents a young girl in her struggle to sleep. The setting and the characters could easily be people that are living around us now, as the book takes place in a home in the city, with a family (mother, father, child, and a cat). This allows the reader to easily be able to relate to the story.
Medium: ink, paint
