Recenzii
Setting the picture book world alight with quirky and evocative style.
Irresistible.
"Definitely keep this one handy for little ones - and grown-ups, for that matter- who are still scared of the dark”.
“The book takes a unique and engaging angle on a common theme, giving it a dark new twist that ultimately will leave children empowered and enthralled”.
Snicket and Klassen are an inspired pairing in this suspenseful take on childhood fear. . . . a memorable ride on the emotional roller coaster that great storytelling creates. Ages 3-6.
The originality of The Dark is breathtaking, as are the pictures and prose. Klassen and Snicket play to their combined strengths. This elegant, vividly written tale should win some shuteye for all - and prizes for its creators.
Highly original and visually stunning. * * * * *
A powerhouse.
Lemony Snicket plays masterfully with the picture book genre in The Dark. Jon Klassen's Seventies-style illustrations are a perfect match for Snicket's wit and virtuosity.
A familiar fear is given a new lease of life... serious, clever and intensely illustrated.
He eloquently reminds us what it is to be afraid of the dark and also, with Jon Klassen's simple, illuminating drawings, guarantees that readers see the light.

A sweet and emotional picture book. A great book for all children who are afraid of the dark.
Lovely retro-styled illustrations... beguiling.
Jon Klassen's artwork, a sequence of variations on themes of darkness and light, captures precisely the spareness of the prose as we watch young Laszlo, the central character, emerge from one to the other.
The Dark has leapt straight into my list of favourite books. A beautiful book that every home should own. 10/10
