Illustrated by
Amanda Shepherd.
When "half a moon shines through her window," Fiona wakes up, leaves her room, and goes out to explore the nocturnal world. She stargazes, sings to a mockingbird, and visits her night garden of angels' trumpets and moonflowers. Gentle, rhythmic text skims across the pages like cool night air, accompanied by deep-hued impressionistic paintings.
