Illustrated by
Barry Root.
This pleasantly rhyming text tells of a young boy's dreams of an evening on the prairie, full of cicadas, coyotes, and the light of "La Luna." Root's softly glowing illustrations capture the silvery grays of nighttime and the warm oranges of the campfire in a romantic cowboy setting. This is a good sundown choice for cowpokes ready to hit the hay.
