Moonlight

I found this rather a disappointing sequel to the outstanding Sunshine. The book takes us through the domestic routine of a small girl and her parents from teatime, through bedtime and beyond. The sequence of wordless pictures is in my experience a little confusing to some young readers at least, and lacks the animation and pace of the first book. The quality of the illustrations gives the impression that the artist dashed them off in some haste. However, there are still too few wordless books available and it would be a pity to ignore this sequel which is merely good because its predecessor was outstanding.
