Noisy Night

Reinberger Review

With each turn of the page, the reader takes flight in this interactive story about a tall and noisy apartment building in the middle of a city. Beginning with a child unable to sleep as a result of mysterious “La La Las” above his head, to an opera singer interrupted by “ma ma mas”, the story moves up, up, up through each floor of the apartment building until reaching the very top where an old man’s sleep is interrupted by it all. When the old man demands everyone to “GO TO BED”, the noise (and the story) ends with a click. The lively illustrations of colorful characters, along with the oversized speech balloons are humorous with lots of life and energy. A nice bedtime story to tickle the funny bone in us all.
