Barn at Night
A beautiful and sweet celebration of a barn at night will help children fall asleep and also learn more about life on a farm. This after-dark journey out to the barn, even on the coldest winter evening, can be a warm and welcoming scene. The young narrator gently details what actually goes on in a barn at night. Who is awake, who is asleep, and who is just making their first appearance in the barn? Smells, sounds and sights are quietly revealed to young readers.
Michelle Houts’ lyrical poetry paired with Jen’s glowing watercolors create a warm and wonderful bedtime story – best shared together. Downloadable coloring pages can be found at: Barn at Night Activity.
