Join the farmer's cat on his fascinating nighttime journey through fields, farms, forests and even the city to see what only he can see after the sunsets. Legendary artist Dahlov Ipcar mesmerisingly alternates between dark night scenes and vivid colour to deliver a beautifully illustrated children's classic. Each scene is shown first as a human would see it at night in blacks and whites, and then as a cat sees it in vivid colour and fine detail. This commemorative edition features new back matter about Dahlov's children's books from her biographer, poet and art critic Carl Little.

Autorenporträt
Dahlov Ipcar was born in Vermont, raised in Greenwich Village, and summered in Maine after her parents (the famed sculptor William Zorach and artist Marguerite Zorach) bought a farm there in 1923. Dahlov moved from New York City to the farm with her husband in 1937. Her children's book career began in the early 1940s, when she illustrated The Little Fisherman by Margaret Wise Brown. This charming title helped launch a four-decade run that saw her write and illustrate more than thirty children's books of her own. Today, her artwork is known worldwide. Dahlov Ipcar kept creating until her death in 2017, at age 99.
