About the Book

Mama’s away one night, and her son can’t sleep. He tries to relax by counting stars, but the more of them he sees, the more determined he is to count every single one…

Then the boy finds that Daddy can’t sleep either. Together, the two of them set off on an unforgettable all-night journey of discovery.

“James E. Ransome’s oil paintings complement Lenny Hort’s poetic text perfectly.” —Washington Post
