Midnight in the Mountains

In a joyful celebration of both the mountains and winter, a young girl recounts and anticipates a memorable family holiday. This is her first night in a mountain cabin, and although her parents and her brother are asleep, she is excited and wakeful. As the fire burns to embers she listens to the sounds of the winter night: the rustle of owl’s wings, the rush of a frozen stream. As she listens, she also remembers the daytime fun of making snow angels and dogsledding on the lake, and looks forward to the next day’s adventure. Recommended reading ages: 4-8
