You Are Light by Aaron Becker

You Are Light by Aaron Becker

With a wondrously simple die-cut book, the Caldecott Honor-winning creator of the Journey trilogy brings his talents further into the light.

Open this beautiful book to find a graphic yellow sun surrounded by a halo of bright die-cut circles. Now hold the page up to the light and enjoy the transformation as the colors in those circles glow. In an elegant, sparely narrated ode to the phenomenon of light, Aaron Becker follows as light reflects off the earth to warm our faces, draws up the sea to make the rain, feeds all the things that grow, and helps to create all the brilliant wonders of the world, including ourselves.

When Aaron Becker was a kid, he fantasized of visiting castles. He was fortunate enough to visit the fortified island of Mont Saint-Michel in Normandy, France, when he was ten years old. That visit prompted him to build the opulent castle seen throughout the Journey trilogy many years later. Aaron and his family recently returned to Europe, where he finished the watercolor paintings included in this book.
