The Sun Is Late and So Is the Farmer by Philip C. Stead illustrated by Erin E. Stead*

 A mule, cow, and mini horse are concerned. The sun is late in rising, which will make the farmer late, who brings their breakfast. When they share their worry with the owl, he advises them to take the rooster and walk to the edge of the world. Will the farmer ever wake up?

Beautifully illustrated. The warm colors seem to glow against the cool colors. The text layout is clever, matching the shape of the three animals standing together.

A husband & wife team

*Highly recommend.
