Slowly, the day darkens into a "Star Sky," and a child, now dressed for bed, gazes out to a "Wish Sky." Soothing and warm, Blue Sky is perfect for bedtime, too-and morning reading as the sun comes up again into "New Sky" "Blue Sky." The simple, direct text is a wonderful opportunity for children, parents, and teachers to sharpen their observation skills.
