Picture Books That See Shadows in a New Light
  + stars: | 2024-07-19 | by ( Leigh Ann Henion | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: +2 min
Which is why it’s so refreshing to find two picture books that present shadows for what they are: the non-nefarious interplay of light and dark. Ultimately, her shadow is joined in a meadow by those of two other children and a dog (the four of them now “friendly” shadows). It is in the presence of harsh light — rather than the depths of darkness — that the story turns somber. It was a thinking shadow, a shadow you could feel but not see. Feng’s soft-lined illustrations visually articulate the essence of Handy’s “stretching shadows,” easing day into night.

According to Bitcoin, the cryptocurrency saw an annual gain of 54% in 2016, outperforming all fiat currencies, most of which stumbled this year. Blockchain technology, which is best known for powering Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies, is gaining steam among finance firms because of its potential to streamline processes and increase efficiency. As a result, venture capital firms and financial institutions alike are pouring investment into finding, developing, and testing blockchain use cases. Banks and major financial institutions are working both collaboratively and independently to develop blockchain tech. Over 50 major financial institutions are involved with collaborative blockchain startups, like R3 CEV or Chain.
