"A visual and auditory delight." --Kirkus Reviews (starred review)
The wall of stone a bit askew.
This is the gap where the deer slip through,
when the sky is still more pink than blue... Throughout the course of a beautiful summer day, from sunrise to moonrise, a host of animals find their way through a gap in the hedge, bringing the farm to life.
