William is fascinated by the animal topiaries crafted overnight by the mysterious Night Gardener. One night, the Gardener allows William to assist in the creation of his greatest work yet, astonishing the townsfolk and, perhaps, inspiring a successor. Whimsical graphite illustrations reflect the story's dreamlike quality, and spare digital coloration enhances the emotional impact of each work of art.
