"[A] refreshing combination of charm and solid fact [and] a high-wattage spotlight on our most important power source." —Kirkus
"[A] brilliant addition to the Science Pals series. . . . Every part of the book is packed with fascinating facts and tidbits. [Kids] will appreciate Moon's inviting approach. —Booklist
"[Emily Kate] Moon brings the same refreshing combination of charm and solid fact [to Ray] that animated her profiles of water (Drop) and air (Puff) . . . . In the vivid illustrations, bursts of light brighten deep seas and underground layers to demonstrate energy’s reach, storage, and continual flow, as well as the planetary surfaces, where light plays an essential role in making food for all. . . . A high-wattage spotlight on our most important power source." —Kirkus
"[A] brilliant addition to the Science Pals series. . . . The smiling faces, hand-lettered witty captions, and bright, cutesy illustrations will appeal to science-minded early readers. However, Moon doesn’t shy away from advanced scientific concepts . . . Every part of the book is packed with fascinating facts and tidbits of information; even the endpapers delve into the science behind light, fusion, sources of light, and energy sources on Earth. Kids with lots of questions about how things work will appreciate Moon's inviting approach. —Booklist
