I love this book!

This book was one of my favorites when I was a kid...it's interesting, funny, and charming. The illustrations are good even though b&w, they complement the story line and plot. If you like fables/fantasies or witch-like characters (think Strega Nona) you will love this book!!!! Happy reading, hope you enjoy!

Great story, positive message

A friend gave me this book when I was in college, and I instantly fell in love with it. I'm a writer and speaker, and I've used it dozens of times to illustrate the futility of fighting what you don't like (darkness/evil) instead of supporting what you do (light/good). There's one phrase, "like dust behind rafters" that comes to me whenever I contemplate things in life that we would rather pretend didn't exist, but which are always with us.
The illustrations are delightful, and the black and white fits the subject perfectly. Color would be a distraction.

Don't be deterred by the black and white pictures!

Although the majority of these pictures are in black and white, and may at first appear drab, I found them to be more visually interesting than many brightly colored illustrations. Besides having an interesting plot, the story can be appreciated for itspure silliness. It is definitely enjoyable, and full of artistic value.

Hildilid's Night

Hildilid's Night
This wonderful book , Hildilid's Night was written by Cheli Duran Ryan, and published by Macmillan Publishing Company New York.If you are around 5-7 years old you can read this book on your own. the main character is Hildilid.She hates the night.The story was about a girl who tried to get the night away.I liked this book because I used to hate the night too.
My most favorite thing is when it turned light again. My least favorite thing is when she trys to get rid of the night but it wouldn't go away.
I would recommend this book because it sort of reflects to when I was little and didn't like the night, and if you didn't like the night , you should read this book too.
