TEASER BOOK TRAILER (24 sec.)
A CANADIAN BEDTIME STORY
for LITTLE READERS Made in Manitoba Just for You If a jackrabbit were to visit you at bedtime, would you follow it? Grab your carrot sticks, hop into a world of whimsy, and join in on the fun!
Good Night, Good Night, Victoria Beach is inspired by a certain half-white, half-brown white-tailed jackrabbit seen at dusk in Victoria Beach, Manitoba after a first snowfall. Enjoy an alphabet-amble through Victoria Beach. The ABCs follow adventurous jackrabbits—if you can spot them—along with their woodpecker, frog, toad, vole, geese, fish, bear, dragonfly, robin, mosquito, ant, chipmunk, and hummingbird friends, as they cavort through the seasons. Come romp through more than 100 pages of fanciful illustrations and colourful rhyming couplets. For children 0 - 100 years old. TO LEARN MORE, here's an author interview
"My pen-and-ink and pan pastel illustrations are all about the fantastical, the whimsical, and the what-ifs. You know, what if a jackrabbit visited you at bedtime? Would you follow it? I love that the jackrabbit’s paw prints jump directly into the book on the very first this-book-belongs-to page. Then, all we see on the very last page is the jackrabbit from behind as it hops off the page. Almost as if the jackrabbit scampers through the whole book." - RB
