Description
From the first light of dawn to the blanketing darkness of the nighttime, discover the different worlds that come to life - with GLOW-IN-THE-DARK surprises!
A gentle lyrical story narrates the changing day. In the morning twilight, mule deer nibble grass while a mountain lion stalks nearby, and hummingbirds flit through the air at sunrise. Fireflies sparkle as the day fades to night, then nocturnal creatures come out to begin their business - view these pages in low light to see what glows in the darkness!
Readers can delve into the labels to find out more about the beauty, mystery - and science - of the natural world, and how the plants and animals are perfectly suited to waking up when they do. Turn to the back to explore A Guide to Day and Night and a glossary of keywords.
Day and Night perfectly combines story and fact, with beautifully colourful illustrations that show the changing day.
