This collection of twenty-two poems explores the fascinating lives of
North American nocturnal animals.
When the sun goes down, many animals come out. Crickets chirp their
crickety song hoping to attract a mate. Cougars bury their leftovers for
later, leaving few clues for others to follow. Armadillos emerge from
their dens to dig for worms, leaving holes in the lawns they disturb.
This collection of poetry from acclaimed children's author and poet
David L. Harrison explores the lives of animals who are awake after
dark. Stephanie Laberis's beautifully atmospheric illustrations will
draw in readers, and extensive back matter offers more information about
each animal.
