Originally published in 1971, Hildilid's Night won illustrator Arnold Lobel a Caldecott Honor in 1972, and it is not difficult to see why. The detailed pen and ink drawings have a magnetic quality, drawing the reader into their shadowy world. I loved the fine textures of Lobel's drawings here, and appreciated the humor and expressiveness of some of his scenes, such as when Hildilid and her dog sing lullabies to the night. The use of yellow, at the end, when the sun is coming up, was a nice touch. There is an element of gentle humor here, and if one is looking for a message, it might be that expending all one's energy worrying about what can't be changed robs a person of the ability to appreciate the blessings they do enjoy. Recommended to anyone looking for somewhat quirky, beautifully-illustrated bedtime books.… (mais)
