From Publishers Weekly
"Blink, blink, dazzle, flash./ Gleam, glow, sparkle, shine!"?so Fearrington describes the electrical extravaganza that is a community decorated for Christmas. Midnight-blue canvases flicker with swatches of bright pastel, transforming nighttime streets into a radiant festival. This high- wattage account of a familiar family holiday ritual is bound to inspire many a Christmas Eve drive. All ages.

From Booklist
Ages 4^-7. Set after dark on Christmas night, this picture book shows a mother and father taking their pajama-clad children for a ride around town to see the Christmas lights. The family finds businesses, apartments, and houses all lit up in individual ways. Then they go home to see their favorite lights of all--the ones on their own Christmas tree. Fearrington's attractive pastel paintings are well composed and really capture the thrill of a beautiful, clear, deep blue night. With a minimum of descriptive text, she shows why so many families participate in this tradition year after year. Kathy Broderick
