The Night Worker by Kate Banks
Going to the job site with Dad in this beloved bedtime book The Night Worker, a Bank Street Best Children's Book of the Year.
When darkness falls and bedtime comes, Papa tucks Alex in, then puts on his hard hat and goes to work. Papa is an engineer who works at night. "Take me with you," Alex says. "Not tonight," says Papa. But one night Papa has a surprise -- a hard hat for Alex! He takes Alex with him to the construction site, where excavators rumble and cement mixers hum. As his dream comes true, Alex gets to be a night worker just like Papa.
Kate Banks's evocative text and Georg Hallensleben's colorful paintings combine to make a unique bedtime book that will delight all children, especially those who are fascinated by big machines.
Kate Banks and Georg Hallensleben have worked on several books, including the Boston Globe-Horn Book Award-winning And If the Moon Could Speak, The Cat Who Went Across France, Baboon, and Shut Your Eyes. Banks, her husband, and their two sons live in the south of France. Hallensleben currently resides in Paris.
