One of our favorite illustrators, Julie Morstad, has teamed up with author Caroline Woodward to create a brilliantly nice children's book.
On a dark winter’s morning a little girl has to trudge a mile to catch the school bus. Will she be able to sing her way through the shadows?
Lilting rhyming text and stunning paintings by Julie Morstad herald an era when singing away the dark was part of a six-year-old’s rural school-going routine.
Julie explains, "being a child in the age of commoditized and marketable fairytale, my drawings reflect both an unabashed delight in the preciousness of this narrative as well as a conscious subversion of the same.”
