Light is Amazing! – Children’s Book
Light is Amazing! is a book for children and was inspired by Scott’s first publication Light, Dark, and the Electromagnetic Spectrum, which is an in depth look at how we interact with light and the electromagnetic Spectrum. This book, Light is Amazing! is for a much younger audience – I’m inspired to think that the more we know at a younger age, the more curious we become as adults.

Author Bio – Scott Gracie
Light is Amazing! is a picture book that lets young readers learn about light in a fun, accessible way — and it comes from someone who’s been fascinated by the subject his whole life. Scott Gracie’s own interest in light and the electromagnetic spectrum began in his early teens, tinkering with electronics as a hobby, and grew further once he studied Electrical and Electronics after school at Randwick North High School in Sydney.
In 1998, Scott began his career building custom light fittings and lamps in his father’s garage. Formal lighting-design qualifications later carried him into project management and design work, and over twenty-five years on, he has worked on infrastructure, commercial and architectural lighting projects throughout Australia. He is a member of the Illuminating Engineering Society of Australia & New Zealand, the Colour Society of Australia, the International Dark Sky Association, the Astronomical Society of the Pacific, and the Australian division of the CIE — bringing that same expertise to this children’s book about light.
