"Here is the key to the house. In the house burns a light. In that light rests a bed. On that bed waits a book. . . ." As evening falls, a young girl gets ready for bed and opens a book. A bird emerges and takes her on a journey through the night skies and back home, to where there is a "book on the bed, bed in the light, light in the house . . . the house in the night." Inspired by a traditional poem. Author's note. Scratchboard and watercolor illustrations. Winner of the 2009 Caldecott Medal.
