Summary
When a father and his son cannot sleep because Mama is away, they decide to pass the time exploring the night in what becomes an extraordinarily satisfying expedition
Amazon.com description: Product Description: Unable to sleep with Mama away, the little boy goes out into the night to count the stars. His father joins him, and the two embark on a stargazing odyssey. "In this worthy addition to the ranks of stories featuring African-American characters, the lyrical rhythm of Hort's text is brought to vibrant life by Ransome's painterly illustrations."--Publishers Weekly.
