In Max at Night, we meet Max, a charming little kitten who is feeling very sleepy. It's well past his bedtime, and he has completed all his pre-bedtime rituals, from drinking his milk to brushing his teeth and even cleaning behind his ears. All that's left for Max is to say goodnight, but there's just one problem: he can't find the moon. This sets Max on an adventurous quest to locate the moon before he can settle down for the night.

As Max embarks on his journey, readers are taken through a beautifully illustrated world that captures the essence of nighttime.

Vere's playful, minimalist illustrations are just right for this quiet story. Some might wonder how the cat will cope with a new moon, but everyone will be rooting for Max, and hoping he returns in another adventure. -- Peter Brown * The New York Times *
