The creator of the beloved Maple books pays tribute to the power of friendship and the bonds that endure after the loss of a loved one.

Something magical happens when a little girl encounters a small red bird--the two instantly see eye-to-eye, and see that there is something in each other that transcends time and space. They become fast friends and connect over their love of listening to the wind, looking at clouds, splashing in puddles, and eating snacks. But the bird can fly, so the girl pretends she can too. Then one day the bird is gone and life isn't the same. The girl is lonely, but the bird visits her in her dreams and she is comforted as they fly together; then as the days pass, the wind, the clouds, and the rain all help her remember her friend and feel the spark of her friend's light still shining within herself.

Lori Nichols spent her childhood in northwestern Pennsylvania, surrounded by maple trees. As she grew, so did her appreciation of trees and nature. Her books about nature-loving sisters Maple and Willow (Maple, Maple & Willow Together, Maple & Willow Apart, and Maple & Willow's Christmas Tree) spring from this love, and the New York Times Book Review called them ""utterly charming."" Lori now lives in Birmingham, Alabama, with her husband and three free-spirited daughters. Many days you can find Lori and her family under their maple tree, swinging in hammocks, playing kickball or just being loud.

Reviews for The Light in Me Sees the Light in You

An exquisitely gentle introduction to loss. . . . With only a feather to remember Poppy by, Robin is left lonely and alone. Yet after a dream of flying with Poppy, the child feels their friend in so many places. . . . The book's focus [is] fixated squarely on a meditative inner light. . . . Watercolors and colored pencils match tone and mood, page by page. A book built to comfort--not to confront --Kirkus Reviews
