HAWKSLEY WORKMAN is an award-winning Canadian singer/songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, producer, writer, and actor. This is his first book for children. The author lives in Toronto.
Singer-songwriter Workman uses the title track from a 2001 EP as the foundation for his first children's book, a beguiling story of people coming together one winter night. It's also a notable debut for Eckwall, whose delicate paintings transport readers to a remote cottage shared by a gray-haired woman and a boy. Together, they prepare a meal before a diverse array of guests arrive, including a brown-skinned family of four and a redheaded girl who rides up on a wolf, tilting an already-magical setting into something even more fantastical. - Starred Review, Publishers Weekly The rhythms are beguiling and carefree, never once veering into sing-song, and it begs to be read-aloud, especially at this time of year when we gather with loved ones. - Kirkus Reivews The rhymed text reads fluid and effortless, and the illustrations are delicate and cozy. Beautiful bedtime story. - Reviews in Chalk blog She brings beauty and a hint of magic to Workman's evocative lyrics; together, they create a world and a night that will enchant readers of all ages. - 49th Shelf blog
