For on this night, the unthinkable happened, changing his life forever. Now every Halloween he lives that same night on repeat… that is until tonight.

Imagine a land where the sun rises at 1:58 a.m. in the summer and shines for less than four hours on a winter's day.

At an average low of -16 degrees Fahrenheit, the winters may be unpleasantly frigid, but the light shows are always glorious! Acclaimed author Debbie S. Miller details the sunsets, twilight, alpenglow, diamond dust, and other quietly beautiful phenomena that color "the Land of the Midnight Sun," describing each animal's activities in both the warm and cold seasons. The dramatic changes in light are captured perfectly in Jon Van Zyle's striking illustrations.
