The protagonist is a 6-year-old girl with a round face, brown pigtails, a small blue hat, large curious eyes and a determined smile; she holds a notebook and a small yellow lantern. A lively gray squirrel with a red ribbon on its tail holds a small silver key and perches on a nearby root. An elderly male librarian, about 60, with round glasses and a short gray beard watches from the stone library entrance, holding an open book and smiling softly. The setting is the base of a wide-trunked oak with knotted roots and a small round wooden door in the bark, green grass dotted with yellow flowers and floating fireflies. The scene shows the girl crouched opening the tiny door by moonlight as the key glints in her hand, the squirrel waits on the root and the librarian stands watch; warm, pastel tones, clear contrasts and simple shapes.
