I’m so grateful for the reviews readers have posted!! Here’s a sweet one from a teacher!

GOOD NIGHT (NOT REALLY) is a counting book with a twist. Lisa and Charlie compare their good night book to one sweet candy explosion, two big bad elephants, three noisy billy goats, etc. Author Nan Evenson breaks the pattern with a surprise when readers get to 8. It’s beautifully illustrated with moons and stars, colorful fairies, and animated mice and mini cats. As a teacher, it would be delightful to share this with students when they arrive as a “Good morning” book.

I’m so pleased to celebrate the launch of my debut picture book! I had so much fun creating it with the extraordinary young Ukrainian artist, Karina! I’m delighted to share it with you.

Good Night (Not Really): Let’s Count Forward and Backward is the first book in the Not Really series. It features Lisa and Charlie in a counting book with darling friends and a surprise ending! (It’s really a good morning book.) And unlike many counting books, this one helps children learn to count forward as well as backward.

Reviews have been coming in! Here’s one of my favorites: “I am an elementary teacher and I have never seen a book that practices backward counting! It is a great tool for kiddos to practice counting up to 10, but then backwards too. The illustrations and story are so colorful and fun in a way that keeps kids engaged and enjoy counting. I would recommend to teachers and parents alike!”
