Goodnight World
Goodnight World is a 24-page board book made with recycled paper with soy-based ink and water-based coating from Native Northwest publishers.
This board book is the opposite of the board book Good Morning World and continues to reinforce worldview values of acknowledging the end of the day. In this simple format, each of the animals, birds, and sea creatures say good night by dreaming, singing each other to sleep and various activities unique to each animal. Twenty-three Northwest Coast artists have contributed to this remarkable title, but the book flows so well the viewer is unaware. Complete credits are found on the book's back cover. The whales hum softly as they float in the sea, while the beavers dream together in their lodge, and the owls watch carefully through the night. The final spread says goodnight to the wolves howling at the moon. Each artist's contribution is recognized in this important title for young children. It also introduces young children to Northwest Coast art designs while explaining the importance of interdependence with the environment.

Native Northwest’s story began over 38 years ago with the vision of building everyday connections to Indigenous cultures.
Native Northwest arts are designed by Indigenous artists, built on a foundation of respect and authenticity and where artists can tell the stories of their communities and cultures through their distinct designs.
