Reseñas de la Crítica

"Nadia Salomon’s Goodnight Ganesha reminds readers that saying goodnight is both universal and unique and that all children deserve bedtime books that reflect their experiences and culture." --Hallee Adelman, author of My Quiet Ship

"A pair of parallel poems, both steeped in references to India and Hinduism, form this stunningly illustrated tribute to family rituals [with] gorgeous, classically stylized art. Contemporary Hindu families will love the culturally specific details, while cultural outsiders will appreciate the universality of a bedtime routine." —Booklist

"Two children prepare for bed at their grandparents’ home in India, content in the love surrounding them and reflecting Hindu influences Luminous illustrations with awe-inspiring patterns convey the relatable comfort of bedtime rituals, told in a poetic style similar to Margaret Wise Brown’s ­ Goodnight, Moon." —School Library Journal

"Who says rhyming picture books can’t also be gorgeous? The rhyme schemes themselves are interesting too. Probably the prettiest bedtime book you’ll encounter." —Betsy Bird's Fuse 8, SLJ Blog
