You Are Light Hardcover - 2019

by Aaron Becker; Aaron Becker (Illustrator)

Caldecott Honoree Becker (the Journey series) crafts a wondrous book featuring a graphic yellow sun surrounded by a halo of bright die-cut circles in an elegant, sparely narrated ode to the phenomenon of light. Full color.


From the publisher

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