No More Noisy Nights, by Holly Niner, introduces us to Jackson, a sweet mole who has just moved into his new underground home. After spending an entire day unpacking, he is ready to go to bed. Jackson soon discovers that he has a ghost living in his attic that likes make noises at night. On the second night, Jackson finds a noisy boogey monster living in his basement. The third night, he discovers a playful pixie living in his piano.
How will Jackson ever sleep again with so much noise in his house? Is there anything that he can do to make the loud trio quiet down? Will Jackson have to find somewhere else to live?
I found this story to be a delightful read. I loved getting to meet the cast of colorful characters that all inhabit Jackson's home. While I like Guy Wolek's charmingly delightful illustrations, I do not like the fact that they appear to be fuzzy and out of focus. I feel that may be a distraction to young readers (and may concern older readers about their eyesight).
Overall, this is a great book for children ages 3 through 9. Jackson's subtle problem solving skills will really get young readers thinking.
