Lyrical text and velvety pictures describe the sights and sounds of nighttime in the country: a mysterious, moving Night that will lull small children to sleep.
Who else is up so late? Who else watches and hears the sights and sounds of Night in the Country -- the many stirrings of silence, the many colors of the dark? Lyrical text and velvety pictures present a very different kind of nighttime: a mysterious, moving Night that will lull small children to sleep..
Across the field a light glows.
Go to the window.
Listen.
Owls swoop, a rabbit patters, and in the yard an apple falls -- pump -- from the tree.
And while the people dream of daytime things, the nighttime world awakens.
There is no Night so dark, so black as Night in the country.
