Good Night My Sweet Island bookcover

Good Night My Sweet Island

Petrea Honychurch Seaman, Susanne Heitz

“A beautifully illustrated poetic depiction of an island I love with all my heart.” Trish Cooke

““A feast for the ears and eyes.”“ Margaret Bateson-Hill

““The rhythms, sights and sounds of the Caribbean are beautifully captured. A real joy!”“ Valerie Bloom

Saying good night “to all things we love”: in a homage to a magical Caribbean island, Good Night Sweet Island takes the reader through a poetic and visually stimulating journey. Each verse celebrates aspects of tropical island life: birds and animals, dance and music, fruit and food, rivers and forests, sea and beach. As the sun goes down, a child says a dreamy good night to all the rich experiences of the day.

It is a lovely night sleep book

This was such a lovely book to read at night time, we learnt some local lingo too.

I liked the words used. The pictures were nice and calm to look at and the story was calm to read. I liked how the boy and his dad sang a song at the end of the day

Really lovely I read this to my mummy I liked the pictures alot and saying goodnight to everything
