Joshua’s Night Whispers

 The Joshua series depicts small moments in the life of a young black boy. Rain Feet follows Joshua as he jumps into puddles and quietly watches the raindrops plopping on the steps. In Mama Bird, Baby Birds Joshua and his sister find a nest of baby birds. Joshua’s Night Whispers finds him seeking comfort from his father when he wakes up in the middle of the night. In Joshua by the Sea, he enjoys a day at the beach with his family. The rhythmic text coupled with soft water colour illustrations give this little series a soothing feel.
