An illustration based on The Yearling. Jody Baxter is walking with the fawn Flag in the scrub and palmettos of the Ocala Forest. Sun streams through the trees, bathing both figures and foliage in golden light. Jody has his hand on Flag, whose white tail is up and alert.
And it was good, good, good
But now it's gone, gone, gone
And there's a little boy who's lost out in the woods,
Always looking for the fawn.
