Through the Night

32 pp. January, 1998 | Trade ISBN 0-689-80642-6
(4) K-3 Intent on returning home to his family, a father drives alone in the night. The text, filled with visual imagery, describes his nighttime homeward journey along a moonlit highway through urban environs into a quiet suburban neighborhood. The muted pastel illustrations, which set the story in the thirties or forties, evoke a dreamlike mood in the nostalgic tale that conveys an adult experience.
