Orion and the Dark, by Emma Yarlett

From School Library Journal K-Gr 2—Young Orion likes to doodle, and his notebook records his scary personal world—big dogs, wasps, girls, the ocean, spiders, heights, storms, and…THE DARK. He's listed many ways to solve his fear of the dark, from amazing inventions to capturing the sun, but at the end of each day, "it's bedtime again." One frustrating evening his nemesis returns in a personal visit. A surprising physical hand pops out as a page extension of the immense Dark greeting young Orion with an invitation to adventure. Orion then begins a time of exploration, understanding, and even enjoyment through visits to the magical shadows of his surroundings while he makes a discovery—"The Dark could be my friend. And nobody (not even me) is scared of their best friend." Digital cartoon illustrations with whimsical pencil doodles (including Orion in his bunny slippers) offer a wide range of fonts and humorous scribbled comments on a child's world. While the small-font doodles might not make this an easy read-aloud, a variety of text in illustrations, speech bubbles, Orion's notebook, and first-person narration create an intimate environment for an inquisitive individual reader with an interest in science and fantasy. VERDICT Strong support for those with unspoken fears, this book is a recommended first purchase for all libraries.—Mary Elam, Learning Media Services, Plano ISD, TX

Review Reminiscent of Oliver Jeffers, Yarlett’s illustrations are a joyful mix of digital collage, sketchbook, and saturated watercolor done in a palette of blueberry and Starburst candies. Many pictures invite close inspection, adding quirky details that fill out the story. Orion’s adventures replace fear with fun, ending with a hug, a new friend, and a well- traveled pair of bunny slippers. Only sweet dreams ahead with this one.—Booklist (starred review)The mixed-media artwork is engaging and expressive.... A funny, savvy bedtime story that addresses common fears.—Kirkus ReviewsThe varied images are gorgeous to look at, and they will leave readers feeling fortunate to have witnessed these two protagonists' starry-eyed mutual affection.—Publishers WeeklyNight-shy children will find companionship in Orion and comfort the Dark's gentle, friendly appearance, while grown-up readers will invent excuses to keep this book on their own shelves.—BookPageWith detailed illustrations that pop off every page, this story is a wonderful exploration of how sometimes the things we fear the most are just things we don't understand—Shelf Awareness

The book is narrated by a young boy named Orion. Orion is afraid of many things, but there's nothing in the world that he's more afraid of than the Dark. Then one night, the Dark comes and visits Orion. The Dark is nothing like Orion thought he would be. It goes with him to all the places in the house where he is afraid to go to show him there's nothing there to be afraid of. The Dark also takes him on a walk so he can see what makes all the strange noises he hears at night that make him fearful. The Dark takes him on a special trip and they spend the night together until the sun begins to rise and the Dark begins to fade. ORION AND THE DARK is a playful book with illustrations drawn in a whimsical style that makes a great match to the poetic story. The book is a great to read to any child who is afraid of the dark.

We are very into space and Nasa. So when I saw this book I added it to his first birthday gift list. It is absolutely an instant favorite of ours. The illustrations are charming and beautiful and parts of the book have the Dark's hand that pops out so you can wave it at your child. the hues are beautiful space- esque tones of aqua and dark blue with whimsical starry skies and constellations. Parts of the book have the title characters lists and ideas written down as if they were penciled in with the drawings. It just is the essence of boyhood and innocence. The illustrations and storyline are captivating, immersing you in his world making you feel as if you are right there exploring with Orion and the Dark. What a lovely book!!

Nice book but think first By Lauren My son really likes this book, and it's a fun read with lots of pictures and funny little details to add to the story. Like Emma Yarlett's other books, it teaches a lesson and this one is about not being afraid of the dark. My son was not afraid of the dark, but this book put lots of ideas into his active imagination about monsters, the dark, and strange noises. While I know the purpose it to make children unafraid, maybe it was coincidence, but around the time we got this book he started fussing about his dark room and monsters. While I don't think he's truly afraid of monsters, he has about 4 night lights in his room now. It didn't really help curb any possible fears. There seems to be a theme with this author's books and my children. They love the entertaining story and illustrations, but they start mimicking the negative theme such as not sharing like in Sidney and Stella, and being afraid in Orion.
