REVIEWS OF MY BOOKS
BRIGHT WINTER NIGHT in Kirkus
"Text and art gracefully advance two themes—cooperation toward a goal and appreciation of nature’s magic—while also lulling restless readers toward naptime or bedtime. Destined to be a favorite bedtime read-aloud."
BRIGHT WINTER NIGHT in Publisher's Weekly
“Awash in shades of purple, blue, and pink, [Ashling] Lindsay’s watercolor and digital artwork project the magic evoked by Brydon’s smooth rhymes, illuminating a magnetic portrait of woodland camaraderie.”
BRIGHT WINTER NIGHT in School Library Journal
“This winter tale would work well for dusky afternoon story hours in December or a bedtime story; the muted illustrations and the text, which has a perfect scan and beat, begin energetically but slow to soothing, steady levels as the animals settle down to sleep.”
LOBSTAH GAHDEN in School Library Journal
"A good read-aloud conservation story sure to entertain students dipping their toes into aquatic environmentalism."
