Description

Walking his dog at dusk, one boy catches glimpses of the lives around him on this lovely ode to autumn evenings, exploring your neighborhood, and coming home.

Before your city goes to sleep, you may head out for a walk, your dog at your side as you go out the door and into the almost-night. Anything can happen on this kind of walk: you may pass a cat, or a friend, and even an early raccoon. And as you go down your street and across the corner, the windows around you remove darkness from separately until you’re walking through a maze of paper lanterns, each one granting you a brief, glowing snapshot of your neighbors as families come together and folks settle in for the night. With a setting that feels both specific and universal and a story full of homages to The Snowy Day, Julia Denos and E. B. Goodale have created a singular book — at once about the idea of home and the magic of curiosity, but also about how a sense of safety and belonging is something to which each child is entitled.
