Report

Night Shift is a category-challenging book and this, I think, is one of its most important qualities. Giving permission for adults to engage with difficult and emotionally draining issues through the medium of a picture book is both innovative and oddly enough a piece of plain common-sense - if this is the best way to confront the topic at hand then there's no good reason not to use that format.
