(4) K-3 Illustrated by Jeremiah Trammell. "I'll run and / laugh and / play all night / under the midnight sun." Simple verse describes how a girl, her younger brother, and Mama take a walk through Alaskan meadows and celebrate the solstice's nighttime sun with a picnic. Landscape and wildlife are realistically and ably portrayed in the art, but, incongruously, the human figures resemble wooden puppets.
