When the Light Dances

By Emily Allison

When the Light Dances is a lyrical picture book that celebrates neurodivergent wonder and the quiet magic of noticing the world differently. Through gentle rhyme and luminous illustrations, the story follows a child who experiences light, sound, movement, and texture with deep curiosity and joy-even as the world around him struggles to understand his way of being.

Inspired by real experiences, this book invites readers to slow down, look more closely, and reconsider what it means to belong. When the Light Dances affirms that children are not broken for noticing differently, and that wonder itself is a form of wisdom.

This title is part of The Quiet Wonder Collection, a series of stories honoring sensory experience, difference, and the beauty of seeing the world with open eyes.
