‘This exquisite board book will retain its visual value forever—certainly long after children have moved beyond the format. That said, the simple concepts in this book are conveyed with elgance, wonder, and joy that compliment the artwork perfectly. Stunning, poetic, and playful, this one is a delight for all ages.’ – Kirkus Reviews
‘Bedtime stories are a staple for countless children, from epic adventures about kickass princesses to awkwardly improvised tales about talking veggies. Now little readers can also dip their toes into art history with this collection of sleep-related art. The cute cover art also makes My Art Book of Sleep a simple yet gorgeous addition to your bookshelf.’ – Bookriot

‘Shana Gozansky’s board books stare head-on at naysayers arguing that fine art isn’t for children… Gozansky’s board books have the feel of a gift book from a museum exhibit; the cover is thick, textured, and gives the sense that there’s a treasure inside… These books provide an introduction to famous works and what we can see in our own human experience through them.’ – Cosmic Bookshelf
