Beautiful paintings highlight the ways various peoples from around the world welcome the sun and the start of a new day in this Caldecott Honor-winning picture book.
Some people say there is a new sun every day, and that it begins its life at dawn and lives for one day only. They say you have to welcome it.
From cavemen, to the Aztecs, to the ancient Egyptians, Baylor Bird describes the ways that people throughout history and the world celebrated the dawn. By the end you may be inspired to create your own song for the sunrise.
