Synopsis
Smoky Night is a 1994 children's book by Eve Bunting. It tells the story of a Los Angeles riot and its aftermath: two people who previously disliked each other working together to find their cats. In the end, the cats teach their masters how to get along. David Diaz's acrylic, collage-like illustrating of the tale earned the book the 1995 Caldecott Medal.
