Waterstones Says

Travelling through time-zones and around the world, Davies' sparkling text combines with Desmond's bold illustrations to deliver an immersive account of animal life and climate change across a thrilling twenty-four hours.

Shortlisted for the James Cropper Wainwright Prize for Children's Writing on Nature & Conservation 2022

Nicola Davies and Jenni Desmond's first collaboration: a spectacular tour of Planet Earth and a powerful rallying cry.

Where on Earth are you, right now? It's late where I am and almost everyone's asleep, but I'm awake, looking out into the night. Wondering...

As the clock strikes midnight, a little girl and her sister visit animals of every shape and size, all around the world - discovering that, in some places, creatures have just started their day, where in others they're already busy hunting for food. Turning the popular concept of time-zones on its head and combining it with a powerful climate message and delightful illustrations, this book is narrative non-fiction at its most spellbinding.
