Who's Afraid of the Light Summary

Who's Afraid of the Light by Anna McGregor

Fergus lives down in the deepest, darkest sea and is scared of just one thing ... the light!

From award-winning creator Anna McGregor (author of Anemone is Not the Enemy) comes this hilarious tale of the deepest of sea creatures. Seamlessly combining humor, narrative, and nonfiction, McGregor introduces young readers to the wonders of the ocean's 'midnight zone', where no sunlight at all is able to penetrate. We meet Fergus as he hides from a parade of sea creatures that use bioluminescence to find their way in the dark. At least, we think he is hiding ... or is it something else entirely?

Who's Afraid of the Light Reviews

'An unnamed narrator has a cheery conversation in the darkest depths of the sea in this humorous tale that sheds some light on the midnight zone. The brightly coloured text and a parade of curious creatures stand out against dark backdrops as readers are introduced to the mysterious Fergus, a deep-sea creature who's afraid of the light. The narrator provides primers on the creatures encountered, while a Did you know? section at the end expands on the science of the deep sea.'

* Foreword Reviews *

'Who's Afraid of the Light is a lively, inventive and informative book that will be loved by readers aged three and up. It begs to be read aloud with a friend or family member.'

-- Jacqui Davies * Books+Publishing *
