Editorial Reviews

From School Library Journal

PreSchool-- Two amateurish books about a young girl's nighttime adventures. In Emma and the Magic Dance , the heroine visits a secret place beneath the Earth to entertain a group of blue monsters with a fabulous dance. In Emma Lights the Sky , she spends her evening fixing and replacing fallen stars. The rhymed text in both titles is unoriginal and painfully childish: "At night I crawl into my bed. I pull the covers over my head." The large, bright, full-color illustrations are equally unpolished. Emma is reminiscent of grammar-school drawings of so-called glamorous women, with large, long-lashed eyes and flowing auburn tresses. Choose instead one of these much better fantasies: Raymond Briggs's The Snowman (Random, 1978) or Maurice Sendak's In the Night Kitchen (HarperCollins, 1970).
