(3) K-3 Illustrated by Jon Van Zyle. Miller chronicles the daylight hours through a year near Fairbanks, Alaska, describing how people and animals adapt their activities to sunlight and temperature fluctuations in this part of the world. Colorful acrylic art illustrates such concepts as blinks, alpenglow, sundogs, and northern lights, and the text explains how the sun's position relative to the tilting earth produces varying periods of night and day. Glos.
