Two playmates, a cat and a mouse, are scared when they find themselves spending the night outside for the first time. Helped by a friendly owl, however, they discover that night can be beautiful instead of scary. Bogacki's pleasing compositions match the simplicity of the text, and the chunky, textured shapes stand out well against the rich blues and greens of the night.
