Lucia and the Light by Mary GrandPré, Phyllis Root
4.0
This is a wonderful picture book with a strong female protagonist. The illustrations are one of the best features, colorful and rich while also soothing to look at.
Placed in an unnamed northern land in the days past, Lucia lives with her mother, baby brother, cow and milk-white cat. One winter the sun goes away and doesn't return as expected. Lucia and the cat brave the darkness to rescue the sun which has been taken captive by trolls.
Some of the language doesn't flow as smoothly as it could, but it's far better than many children's books out there.
