Reviews
"'Look closer,' this gentle bedtime book encourages. While nighttime might seem to be only black and white, there is color to see everywhere. An orthodontist by day and a cartoonist by night, [Grant Snider] clearly understands the promise that lies on the other side of sunset."—The New York Times

"Snider helps children (and adults) look beyond the darkness and see the beautiful colors that appear in the night. [What Color is Night?] opens children's eyes and minds to things they don't often think about and offers endless possibilities for exploration." —School Library Journal

"If you think the night is black, think again. Snider's elegant nocturnal idyll explores the many colors visible to those who 'look closer.' [What Color is Night?] will have young readers hoping to stay up for a glimpse of 'colors unseen.'" —Kirkus Reviews
