Shadow Chasers

(3) PS "There is a time, as evening paints the summer sky... / when shadows come out to play." Three children venture into the forest at sunset, chasing mysterious animal shadows and drawing readers into the search, too. The evocative poem is accompanied by appropriately dreamlike multi-layered illustrations, created using ingenious paper dioramas, which begin in warm sunset tones and cool to purples as nighttime falls.
