Esther van den Berg studied illustration at the Art Academy in Kampen, the Netherlands, where she familiarized herself with etching and other types of printmaking. Currently she makes most of her illustrations digitally. Because of her artisanal background, Esther is always looking for a hand-painted feeling in her digital work. Her prints are atmospheric, with an eye for detail and often with a humorous wink.
"PreS–These interactive books encourage readers to wake animals or soothe them to sleep by tickling them gently, petting their shells, singing a song, or tracing their tails. The layout and structure is consistent through both volumes. The majority of the text appears on the left page, and the ­animal is on the right, with the title ­repeated as a refrain. Animal names appear in bold. ­Animals include a hedgehog, cat, baby deer, and more. All look appropriately cuddly, with soft edges and no outlines. Backgrounds are a solid color that changes with each turn of the page. Sleep Tight features a ladybug on so many of the left pages, it feels like a purposeful inclusion, similar to Goldbug in Busy Town. These are kind, compassionate stories encourage gentle, loving touch. ­VERDICT A perfect read-aloud for a caregiver to share with a ­little one. ­Definitely add both of these titles." – School Library Journal
