I Want My Light On!

(4) K-3 As the Little Princess grapples with bedtime fears, a series of inept adults attempt to comfort her. Ross's saturated watercolors play with light and shadow to reinforce the simple text. While the princess's sudden emotional shift from scared to capable may confuse young readers, they'll enjoy the comical conclusion, as a young ghost's mother assures him there's "NO such thing as little girls."
