Gorgeous block-print style illustrations with a retro feeling accompany a whimsical text and reveal the secret life of shadows in this delightful picture book. After dark, freed of their daytime jobs, the shadows come out to play in Shadowville, where they can relax, play sports, shop and even dine. Bold, contrasting illustrations and rhyming text make this a fun read-aloud title for young children, as well as a gorgeous work of illustration in its own right.
