This sturdy board book about the beloved orange tomcat, Dikkie Dik, "Out and About with Dikkie Dik" (All Day Long), explores day and night, and all the animals and things you might encounter. Large flaps on each page reveal even more of Dikkie Dik 's world.
Dikkie Dik wakes up so early that Mouse the cat is still asleep. So he sets off on his own. Dikkie Dik loves to roam, just like other cats. But today he's going a long way from home. So far that it's already getting dark on the way and the moon is rising. But Dikkie Dikkie Dik doesn't mind at all, and in fact, he quite enjoys it; at night, the world suddenly looks very different, and you encounter animals you don't see during the day. Join Dikkie Dik for a walk and discover behind the flaps which animals are awake during the day and which are awake at night. Toddlers and preschoolers will playfully discover the difference between morning and afternoon, evening and night. In the morning, you'll encounter a rooster and a bird, but as the sun begins to set, you might even see a deer. And when it gets really late... then Dikkie Dik goes back to sleep!
