When the Sky Is Like Lace was named one of the New York Times Outstanding Books of the Year when it was first published in 1975. On a night on which anything, you think, can and indeed will happen, three girls venture out to listen to otters sing, eat spaghetti with pineapple sauce, and watch treesdance. Islandport Press is thrilled to reissue this treasure, a favourite of children and one requested by librarians everywhere.
