One summer morning, a boy meets a wonderful Owl-like creature, as big as he. He's delighted when it agrees to be friends and stay for awhile. 

Sometimes illustrations are more magnificent than a photograph could ever be. Such are Tim Fischer's in Under the Blanker Sky. Several 2 page spreads of wordless scenes of play, tell more than words could say. I felt nostalgic, remembering summers of my youth. Parent's will love this, children will enjoy the story of a magical relationship of a boy and his summertime friend. The boy is Caucasian
