Through the eyes of a group of diverse children, author Sue Fliess , reminds us of the importance of light in the world. Light is all around us; sun light, moonlight rainbows, Northern Lights, even fireflies. There are birthday candles and lights used to comfort in sad times. There are festivals that revere the power of light: Hanukkah, Diwali, Yi Peng, Christmas, and what would the the Fourth of July be without fireworks. All the forms and uses of light are introduced through simple rhyming text and the vibrant full page illustrations of Khoa Le. The science of light and celebrations described in the book can be found in the back of the book. This is a wonderful choice for introducing young readers to both the science of light and how light is such a part of our lives. Use in science units, cultural units and units of poetry and art.
