When Arabella spots a pair of deer in a nearby field, she calls out and invites them to her school’s autumn dance. Are these creatures merely deer? Or are they otherworldly, as her parents suggest? When a graceful, unknown couple show up at the dance, dazzling the rest of the attendees, only Arabella guesses who they might be . . .

A modern, atmospheric folktale set in the heartland, Night of the Deer is sure to spellbind readers young and old. This lovely book is filled with cozy, seasonal charm (there's a hint of Over the Garden Wall here, to us) and enough magic to entrance children read after read.
