Imaginative, beautiful, and down-to-Earth. Even though this is a fantasy book, the imagery and narrative are very Earthy and warm. It would be a good read for children in 3rd grade. It had a nice slow pace and flow that made it engaging.

A lovely story for children interested in faeries. A human child visits the faerie world (night) and he in turns visits her human world (day). Although they cannot stay in each other's worlds, they stay friends forever. This could also serve as an introduction to the differences of people's lives for a child visiting a new town, country, or new friend's house without being too pedantic.

Lovely story! Really appreciated the loving, lifelong committed relationship of two opposite-gender individuals with no suggestion that they were romantically or sexually involved, nor any assumption about the nature of their relationship based on their genders.
