They danced by the light of the moon,
The moon, the moon,
They danced by the light of the moon.

She fed him rose hips - I could lose myself in that cover!
I certainly understand your wanting Sleeping Child; it's a beautiful piece. In fact, ALL of the pieces containing the Snow Leopard caught my eye...especially the cover drawing.
I also have to admit I like Little Beau Peep...as much for the subject as for the art. I really wonder what it's all about.
They are gorgeous.
