Waking Day

In this lavish picture book, 24 exquisite paintings are paired with lines of a simple, joyful poem about sunlight. Morgenstern's carefully chosen words celebrate sunlight and also praise the artists' ability to capture the light in their works. Includes paintings from Camille Pissaro, Claude Monet, Edgar Degas, Vincent van Gogh, Pierre-Auguste Renoir, and many more. A large trim size makes it a perfect read-aloud. Four pages of endnotes give information on the Impressionist period and artists.
