A soothing, evocative poem about night falling over a young girl'​s home and neighborhood is brought to life by the lush artwork of Caldecott Medal winner Jerry Pinkney in this bedtime treasure.

Up above the earth so far
Hang half a moon and one whole star
Hang one whole star and half a moon;
Nighttime will be coming soon.

And while a young girl sleeps, nighttime deepens in vivid harmony all around her--in the woods and garden, on the ocean, in the city, and on the porch, where her parents sit.
