(3) PS Illustrated by Karen Katz. "Night is over. The moon goes down. The morning star is blazing bright--the bright and morning star." Brown's comforting text is newly illustrated in this toddler-friendly edition. Katz's round-faced, chubby babies of different ethnicities inhabit a bucolic world of cheerful ponies, scampering squirrels, and fluffy lambs.
