Mother Sky plays hide-and-seek with her starry-eyed, mischievous daughter, Little Night, as part of the child's bedtime routine. Morales's sumptuous palette darkens from rich turquoise and sunset reds and golds to midnight purples and blues, with sparkling white and silver accents. There's no real plot here, simply a lovely, lyrical, resplendently hued personification of nightfall. Concurrently published in Spanish.
