Description

This sweet story about a child's magical night with a blue heron is the perfect dreamy bedtime story for little ones.

One summer morning, Boy wakes up to discover Blue. Curious, he follows this mysterious bird on a day's worth of adventure, play, and exploring the nooks and crannies of their coastal home. And at night, they soar, with hands and wings reaching for the stars. But as the sunrise peeks out, Boy is forced to say goodbye to Blue. For now.

In this gentle and touching story, New York Times bestselling illustrator Suzanne Kaufman proves that love can transcend all boundaries.

Reviews

* "[Kaufman's] compositions are masterful, with whimsically sketchy sun-dappled daytime vignettes of the friends in the fizzy surf contrasting with ethereal, star-studded double-page spreads that feel appropriately endless. A whimsical, luminous romp."--Kirkus Reviews, starred review
"A meditative wish-fulfillment fantasy that leans into both adventure and security."--Publishers Weekly
