JUST ONE LITTLE LIGHT

JUST ONE LITTLE LIGHT by Kat Yeh. Illustrated by Isabelle Arsenault

You may have noticed that I added this picture book to the MIDDLE GRADE BOOKLIST and YA BOOKLIST. I actually just purchased this book for one of my older daughters who is going through a difficult situation right now. I sat down on her bed with her and read it to her. I don't have any silly notions that this book is going to fix everything, but this book encourages the reader that when you are walking through darkness in life, you have a small light. When looking at that small light you may wonder how it will ever be enough to do anything, but that one light,while not enough to light the whole sky, is enough to light your path to begin moving forward. Our kids are going to face hard, challenging times in their lives. That's a given. Despite these hardships, you can still take a chance, face fears, take a step forward. We all need to be reminded of that, no matter our age!
