"A beautiful, original work for one-on-one or independent reading, and an excellent bedtime tale."-- School Library Journal STARRED REVIEW "There are plenty of stories about what toys get up to at night, but this quiet, masterfully executed comic is particularly enchanting."-- Booklist STARRED REVIEW "Liniers continues his run of clever comics for kids, with a fun adventure and panels full of easy-to-follow action. Delightful."-- Kirkus Reviews STARRED REVIEW "A fast-moving, richly imagined story that loses nothing in repeated readings. A fable about a stuffed animal that comes to life risks being a tedious cliché, but in Liniers' skillful hands, Good Night, Planet is anything but."-- New York Times "The panel sequences are alternately poignant and funny, and there's quiet wisdom, too."-- Publishers Weekly "Cartoonist Liniers provides exceptional and gorgeous color drawings throughout in a story that is appealing both visually and conceptually.


"-- The Midwest Book Review Children's Bookwatch - The Fantasy Shelf "Liniers' thin, sketchy ink lines are complemented by a beautiful watercolor palette that adds depth and mass to his forms, in addition to his masterful use of crosshatching (especially during nighttime scenes)."-- Horn Book Magazine "A beautifully illustrated take on the classic idea of a child's beloved stuffed animal coming alive at night."-- Comics Worth Reading "So which is your child's favourite doll? The one that he/she takes along to bed and wakes up to see its face? The little girl in this story does the same, but just that the stuffed animal here comes to life at night. With great illustrations and a simple narrative, this book teaches kids all about teamwork and friendship in a delightful manner."-- Kids Stop Press Book Club "A gentle and imaginative tale."-- Puget Sound Council for Reviewing Children's and Young Adult Literature.
