About this ebook

A clever picture book about a multi-level apartment building's occupants and their many nighttime noises.

It's a noisy night in this city building! The residents of each floor can hear their neighbors above them, and are wondering what's going on above their heads. Climb floor by floor and page by page to find out whose singing, dancing, cheering, and cooing are keeping a grumpy old man awake.

With innovative split-level spreads that offer the feeling of climbing an apartment building floor by floor, this clever and colorful collaboration between New York Times–bestselling author Mac Barnett and gifted illustrator Brian Biggs offers an irresistible investigation of one noisy night.

    The residents of one very tall apartment building make quite a bit of noise in this entertaining bedtime book from author Mac Barnett and illustrator Brian Biggs. In the cumulative narrative, each resident wonders what is going on above his head, as various noises - the 'lalala' of an opera singer, the "rahrahrah" of cheerleaders - intrude upon their evening at home. Eventually, an old man demands quiet, and the residents below him simmer down...As anyone who's ever lived in close proximity to other people knows, sometimes one's neighbors can be a source of great frustration at night. In Noisy Night, Barnett and Biggs depict the vibrancy of life in an apartment building, while also capturing how the incessant activity of so many people can prove distracting, or even distressing for those living above or below them. Younger children will appreciate the rhyming sound-words that Barnett uses in describing the various noisy activities of the apartment building residents, while also enjoying the colorful, cartoon-style illustrations that Biggs has created to accompany the text. Recommended to anyone looking for a more madcap bedtime book, one that features lots of fun activity, before returning to the idea of quiet.
