Illustrated by
Eric Rohmann.
A short poem by Scottish poet Guthrie (1874–1952) salutes the day: "To the sun / Who has shone / All day, / To the moon / Who has gone / Away..." In illustration, a squirrel family frolics, beginning and ending its day in its tree trunk home. Together, the whisperlike poem and tender watercolors create a quiet musicality.
