'"The poetic rhyming text of The Lights That Dance in the Night pairs beautifully with the dance of the Aurora Borealis, and deftly mixes the science behind how the lights are formed with cultural significance and fable. In one spread, indigenous Arctic peoples enjoy the lights and we hear how they feature in their storytelling tradition; and in another, polar bears, and Arctic hares frolic together under the night sky. Author-illustrator Yuval Zommer'sunique artistic style brings the wintery landscapes to life in this wonderfully atmospheric book."'Phoebe Demeger, Centre for Literacy in Primary Education (CLPE) Librarian'"What an exquisite book this one is! The lights swirl and twirl and tumble and whoosh in beautiful brushstrokes across every stunningly illustrated page, taking you on a journey of magic and wonder to the ice-capped Arctic. With each page of lilting, lyrical language, and exquisite artistry, their magic weaves its way into your heart and the heart of your little one. With its message of light bringing hope in the dark, this book is the most sublime ofstories for a winter's evening."'Mini Travellers'"Wild cats and Arctic foxes frolic beneath starry skies, as whales, puffins and polar bears lift their voices in song. Nature is always at the fore of Zommer's work, and this book is a sparkling wintry masterpiece.
