Imagine That: The Magic of the Mysterious Lights
|
Juvenile Fiction
On a night when the sky is full of stars, sometimes there appears light that cannot be explained, even by the smartest astronomers. We know about comets and asteroids-even shooting stars. We know what these are and they can be explained. But there are flashes of light in the sky for which there is no name or explanation, and to this day they remain a mystery. However, not too long ago a little girl discovered why she was able to see lights in the sky that no one else could see.
