About this title

Synopsis

The soft glow of a candle, the blink of a firefly, a burst of fireworks―light is everywhere in our world!

Follow a diverse group of kids as they live, learn, celebrate, and encounter light all around them. Poetic, rhyming text from Sue Fliess and luminous illustrations by Khoa Le invite readers on a journey through the world of light.

"Multiple STEAM applications, from poetry and creative writing to introductions to energy and light to how the sun affects human life, and doubles as a great read-aloud or a starry bedtime story."―starred, Booklist
