From tiny specks of dust to gleaming rays in the dark, the northern lights travel across the Arctic in this rhyming picture book that unites the many different animals that live in the Arctic and concludes with the storytellers in Lapland. While the text is unexceptional, the illustrations are gorgeous. Catalogers will have to decide where to fit this book: picture book, Northern Lights, Arctic, poetry. It is a lovely winter story for sharing as a read-aloud or for one-on-one sharing with young children.
