Goodreads

This is a beautifully illustrated wordless picture book about what happens at the fair during the night when it’s closed. Not surprisingly, the animals of the forest come out and take full advantage of all the fun the fair has to offer—they ride the carousel, they play the games, they eat the food. The mixed media illustrations feature gorgeous and brightly colored watercolors that really convey the magic of the fair at night. Hand this book to fans of wordless books who love a little imagination and fun in their stories. Recommended for readers 3 and up.
