What happens when an entire neighborhood suddenly goes dark? When the lights disappear from Brightville, Ada, Kofi, Zina, and Tobi - the Little Wonders - have a big question: Who turned off the lights? With Grandpa guiding them, the children begin a safe and exciting investigation. Along the way, they discover that electricity doesn't simply appear when we flip a switch. They learn how electricity is generated at power stations, travels through networks, passes through transformers, and reaches homes. But their biggest discovery comes when they learn about complete electrical circuits and see how a simple battery, wires, and bulb can demonstrate the basic idea of electricity flowing along a complete path. As the mystery unfolds, the children also learn an important lesson about electrical safety, why they should never touch electrical wires, open electrical equipment, or investigate electrical problems without a trusted adult.
