(3) K-3 Illustrated by Ted Lewin. A crow, moose, and fox fail to rouse the sun to end the long winter night--something that only a small chickadee's song ("Dee-dee-dee") is able to do, as "Fingers of light / peel back the blanket of darkness." Bauer's poetic text is enhanced by Lewin's lush, textured illustrations, which bring to life the forest and its sun-seeking creatures.
