by Stephen Savage introduces readers to a world of shadows, depicted in cool blue tones punctuated by bright white light. Along with this visually intriguing artwork, the words read like a guessing game mixed with a poem: what is it that “hides behind/ a cloud, / then catches a passing plane”? As readers turn the pages and examine each picture, the answer becomes clear. This is a perfect bedtime story and a lovely meditation on how elements of the natural world are shared by everyone.
