Sunrise, Moonrise

by Betsy Thompson (Author) Betsy Thompson (Illustrator)

Reading Level: K − 1st Grade
Day turns into night and some animals drift to sleep while others spring to life in this beautiful high-contrast board book.

Sun rises.
Bird sings.


And so the day begins in this beautifully simple board book with bold artwork and lyrical text that shows us the passing of time in the day. Fish swim under a blue sky, squirrels dream as the sun sets, the moon rises as stars blink, and an owl hoots when night falls. With word repetition and a single tree that houses both the bird who sings as the sun rises and the owl who hoots after the moon rises, little ones can begin to understand that the day begins and ends in the same way.
