“This awesome, visually rich story will captivate adults who once played outside until the street lights came on as well as their kids, who will now want to.” — Kirkus

A lyrical ode to long summer evenings.
Lindsay’s text brought back so many childhood memories for me. It celebrates the joy of being outdoors, the magic of the long twilight of mid-summer, and the fun of finding your own adventures (with a little help from your friends. And maybe that little brother or sister that wants to tag along).
Dusk Explorers was recognized with a Crystal Kite award from the Society of Children’s Book Writers and Illustrators, and was recognized as a book of outstanding merit on Bank Street’s list of the best children’s books of 2020.
Here's a fun conversation I had with Lindsay Leslie about Dusk Explorers.
