". . . They come by night when the moon is full and city lights are far away . . ./Whisper their name the ancient way,/"Coyotl. Coyotl." A child imagines being at one with the desert creatures once inhabiting the desert stretches where now the family's suburban home and garden are. Delicately beautiful full-color paintings fill the whole pages picturing the child's dreams, while white borders frame moon-filled pages of the present time. (Ages 3-7)

"Nunes takes a small child on a circular journey from bed to a walled garden and the wilder world beyond--where he dances with the coyotes in the moonlight. . . . Lovely watercolors capture the dreamlike evanescence of the text".--Kirkus Reviews. A Reading Rainbow Review Book.
