Illustrated by
Kristina Swarner.
At bedtime, Rose rides a tawny, comfortable-looking lion into the sky, where they "Swoop through outer space" and play among the constellations. When a black hole threatens to swallow them up, Rose uses a comet tail to lasso Cetus, the whale constellation, and he tows them to safety. Attractive textured illustrations in deep, rich colors accompany this fantasy's singsongy rhymes.
