The Lights That Stay: A Picture Book That Inspires Self-Confidence and Celebrates Individuality

This book inspires self-confidence and celebrates a child’s unique capabilities. In a world full of different lights, there are two that never fade. This elegantly simple story artfully weaves together the parallels of the sun’s light and a child’s inner light, reminding those big and small that something inside each of us is enduring and powerful. The Lights That Stay follows the journey of a girl whose inner light grows and transforms in various and profound ways. For readers who love classics such as You’re Here for a Reason or The Crown on Your Head, both by Nancy Tillman, or Someday by Alison McGhee, this book provides a similar opportunity to help children feel a little more confident about their unique journey. Beyond a bedtime story, The Lights That Stay makes a great baby shower, graduation, or birthday gift.
