A bedtime picture book celebration of everyday heroes and non-traditional working patterns for little airplane, aircraft and airport lovers.
As night falls on Motor Isle, travellers and pilots finish up their journeys and settle down for sleep. But why are Air Ambulance, Cargo Truck and the rest of the Good Night Airport just waking up? Follow these busy vehicles from dusk to dawn as they drive about carrying out important night jobs that keep the airport running smoothly. As the morning light appears, tuck them in and say sweet dreams.

"As the sun sets on an airport, maintenance and support crews wake up and get to work. With echoes of Richard Scarry, a variety of animals cheerfully operate the lavatory truck, the tow tractor, the runway cleaner, and other vehicles that keep the planes running smoothly. [ ...] A perky read-aloud option for young vehicle fans and their grown-ups who are ready for something besides the usual garbage trucks and excavators." Elisha Brookover, Booklist
