Light — Jane Breskin Zalben

In the beginning, there was emptiness,
like a blank canvas.
Then, in a swirl of motion, the world was created.

It was going to be finished with a special kind of light, stored in a huge jar.
But the light was so powerful it shattered the jar into millions of pieces. People were created to find the sparks of light and bring them back together so that the world would be perfect.
