After reading FLASHLIGHT, kids will want to break out their own flashlights to explore the natural world around them. They'll also love the surprise ending--tables are turned when an owl shines the light on the boy, providing the first time we see the boy in color.

This looks absolutely stunning, would be a great bedtime story to read to my 3yo daughter, who all of a sudden has become aware of the dark at night.
