A gentle text inspired by “Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star” notes the qualities of a winter evening. From the peaceful snow-covered woods, to a decorated town, to excited kids nestled in their beds, “Magic, / wonder, / beauty bright— / twinkle right on through the night.” Myers’s wonder-filled digital illustrations capture the warmth of the season as they follow several different families’ activities and feature Hanukkah and Kwanzaa lights along with Christmas decorations.

From the November/December 2022 issue of The Horn Book Magazine.
