This beautifully illustrated tale presents a daughter's tender memories of growing up in rural America-from chasing mourning doves across shafts of sunlight and playing hide-and-seek between the cows to swinging from a rope into a featherbed of hay. At the center of her memories are the songs her father played for the cows and the love he showed for his daughter.
