"My Light", by Holly Bang. $14.95, Hardcover, 44 beautifully illustrated pages, published by Scholastic Books, grades K-2.  Often taken for granted, the sun gives us more than its light. Here, acclaimed author and illustrator Molly Bang presents a celebration of the wonder and power of the sun and its radiance. With dazzling paintings and a simple poetic text, MY LIGHT follows the paths of the sun's rays, showing the many ways in which we obtain energy from its light. Molly Bang uses a story to explain the basic concepts behind electricity and our energy resources - a compelling and easily-accessible way to present a non-fiction subject.  Dazzling paintings and simple text take young readers on an incredible journey that follows the light of the sun as it transformed into the energy we use every day in our homes. "Stunning and technically accomplished illustrations."

 

"What Makes The Light Bright, Thomas Edison?", by Melvin and Gilda Berger. $6.95 Softcover, 45 pages, published by Scholastic Books, grades 3-5.  In this educational book, you will find answers to twenty questions about Thomas Alva Edison...you'll also learn about Edison's inventions -- from the light bulb to  an improved telephone to the phonograph to a film projector.   Experiments you can do at home demonstrate how a modern lightbulb works and how the inside of your flashlight shows the flow of electricity.  With plenty of photographs and illustrations, you'll see Edison as a young boy doing experiments in the basement, the laboratory of his "invention factory" and much, much more.
