Description
The child in this delightful book wakes up full of pep at 5 o’clock in his parents’ bed. In the full darkness, the child jumps from the bed and goes to the window, looks through the toy telescope and shouts: “Good morning, Space!”
The reader follows the energic child’s travel when watching what aliens are doing on other planets: they are dancing, eating, and just going about their own day. At the same time, the parents wake up, do their morning tasks, and the active child gets ready for the day.
Good Morning Space is a sibling book to Linda Bondestam’s beloved story Good Night, World. Here, the perspective is reversed – it is now a child on Earth who is looking at other space beings. Funny surprises and small tasks, like waking a sleepyhead, makes this a peppy challenger to the classic and sleepier feel-good night story.
Author
Bondestam has illustrated dozens of children’s books for Finnish and Swedish publishers, and her books have been translated into several languages including Arabic, Belorussian, Croatian, Danish, English, Finnish, German, Latvian, Norwegian, Russian, Serbian, Turkish and Ukrainian. She is one of the most prominent children’s book illustrators in the Nordic countries.
The illustrator has been nominated for the prestigious Finlandia Junior Prize three times, and the Astrid Lindgren Memorial Award five times. She has also been recognized with nominations for the Nordic Council’s Children and Young People’s Literature Prize in 2013 and 2021, and the August Prize in 2016, 2019 and 2021.
Bondestam’s collaboration with Ulf Stark on Animals That No One Has Seen Except Us was awarded the Snöbollen Prize for Swedish Picture Book of the Year in 2016, and the Nordic Council’s Children and Young People’s Literature Prize in 2017. Bondestam was also the first recipient of the Vanessa Prize (Vanessapriset) in 2016. Bondestam’s own title, My Life at The Bottom, was a pick for the White Raven Catalogue in 2021.
She has been sitting on chair number 11 in the Swedish Children’s Book Academy since 2019.
