Illustrated by
Laure Fournier.
A father and daughter walk through a city in the early morning as the sun rises and daytime activities commence. Skillfully showing the changing light, Fournier's illustrations depict an uncluttered urban landscape. The spare rhyming text--with poetic tendencies such as onomatopoeia, simile, and metaphor--captures the gentle tug between taking in the sights and making it to school on time.
