THE NIGHT WALK

THE NIGHT WALK by Marie Dorleans

The weather we have been having has been beautiful and perfect for spending time in the great outdoors. With this in mind, the book I'm sharing today is The Night Walk by author/illustrator Marie Dorleans. I love sweet adventures like this (though I'm not the best at doing them because sleep is such a blessing!). In the story, parents wake their children in the middle of the night to set off on a long walk to make it to a certain point to experience the sunrise together. If you have children (like some of mine) they love to see the sunrise and will scramble out of bed to see it break across the ocean waves, hike part of a mountain to see the first rays touch miles and miles of land beneath them, or load friends in their car brought home from college to go up the neighbor's hill to see the light touch the tops of trees and rows of corn. This picture book definitely causes memories of sweet moments spent together as a family to resurrect in your mind!
