Beatrice likes the dark. She likes black clothes, graveyard picnics, and a sky full of stars. Her sister, Roo, likes the light. She likes bright clothes, picking strawberries, and hot, sunny days. Can Beatrice help Roo love the dark as she does? Can Roo help Beatrice love the light? Or are they simply too different to get along?
Lushly detailed artwork from award-winning illustrator Khoa Le brings to vivid life acclaimed author April Tucholke’s heartwarming tale about two very different sisters who learn that love runs deeper than their differences.
