Come out, come out,

Show us your colors.

Show us your lights.”

On a cold winter’s night, mother and daughter play a game of hide and seek with the Northern Lights. Yet there is so much else to see and hear in the moment . . . so much beauty to appreciate and remember—especially time spent together.

Gorgeously written and exquisitely illustrated, Chasing the Light is a book to treasure and an experience to share.
