It's a windy winter morning, and a little girl has to walk a mile to catch the school bus. Along the way she faces wire gates, dark shadowy woods, a bull grazing with the cattle, and wickedly cold wind. Will she be able to sing her way through the dark morning?
Lilting rhyming text by Caroline Woodward and stunning paintings by Julie Morstad create the look and feel of a classic picture book.
"The pictures and text follow her as she wends over hill and hollow, breaking into song to keep the specters at bay and stave off cold.... Night can be a very alien world, but this beckoning book is like an invitation to come walk there." -- Kirkus
