Lucia and the Light

(3) K-3 Illustrated by Mary GrandPré. In this absorbing tale, Lucia bravely searches for the sun, which has disappeared from the winter sky. With the help of her cat, she takes the light back from the dangerous dark-loving trolls who have hidden it away. GrandPré's dramatic pastel compositions, dimly lit at the beginning, provide a gratifying burst of yellow and pink as the sun breaks free.
