Description:
Experience the mystical moment when the day awakens!
Silence still lies over the lake and the banks are dark. Morning dew hangs like pearls in a spider’s web. A fawn drinks, pricks up its ears and leaps away. The morning mist rises, a fish snaps at an insect, the delicate wings of the dragonfly tremble and birdsong greets the coming day as the first rays of sunshine flash through the trees. Without many words, this poetic picture book tells us little stories and moments of dawn. It lets us experience moods, sounds, movements, light – the buzzing of insects, the gentle murmur of water in a deserted landscape. The ‘rosy-fingered dawn’ was already celebrated by the Greek poet Homer. Illustrator and author Marc Martin skilfully brings it to life through masterful watercolours and carefully chosen words. The special magic of this atmospheric picture book delights children and adults alike.
