What does light feel like?
Ellie cannot see the world, but she sees it through the love and companionship of her best friend, CiCi. Together, they set out on a gentle yet profound journey to explore light — not only the light that brightens the sky, but the invisible light that glows within friendship, courage, and empathy.

Runxuan Li is an illustrator and storyteller with a background in architecture, children’s illustration, and graphic design. Coming from a design-focused path, she’s always been drawn to how visual language can express emotions we can’t easily put into words. Her work often explores quiet relationships, the inner worlds of children, and the beauty of small moments. In her recent picture book, she follows a visually impaired girl and her best friend on a gentle journey to discover light — a story about perception, friendship, and the invisible things that connect us.
