Reception
A Lion in the Night has been reviewed by the School Library Journal[1] and Kirkus Reviews that called it "A nighttime romp" and wrote "Allen's funny drawings, full of lovable characters and amusing details .. are deployed across the double spreads in a series of rhythmical dances to echo the wonderfully cadenced text. The dream-adventure makes the night exciting, but leaves baby safe and sound when the sun rises, in this fantasy that begs to be shared aloud."[2]
It has been read and taught in schools.[3] and has inspired a number of theatrical productions.[4]
It also received the 1986 Library and Information Association of New Zealand Aotearoa Russell Clark Illustration Award.[5]
Illustrations for the book are held by the Mitchell Library.[6]
