Bookroo's summary

Ronan embarks on a city adventure with her mother, captivated by the vibrant energy around her. Musicians, billboards, and dancers spark a question: where does her own brightness come from? As she experiments with dance, drawing, and painting, Ronan discovers the magic within herself. Can she harness this creative joy and share it with the world? 'Sometimes It's Bright' invites readers to explore the transformative power of creativity.

From the publisher

In this visually rich picture book, a girl discovers the joy of creativity, first on a walk through the city and ultimately within herself. As Ronan and her mother spend an afternoon together, the girl notices a sparkling brightness–flowing in the notes of a street musician, blaring from billboards, and flying from dancers on stage. Why does she sometimes feel bright–and where could she find that brightness when she wants it? Curious, she experiments . . . until she discovers the magic can come from her, too, when she dances, draws, and paints. Sometimes It’s Bright explores how being our most creative selves brings joy to us and to the world.
