Join Asha and her friends from The Amazing Sarong and The Incredible Basket as she moves from her cosy shophouse to a housing estate in Toa Payoh. The buildings are tall, the apartments are new, and her home even has electric lights. Her family begins the rites of blessing for their new home using a beautiful oil lamp. When the power is suddenly cut, everything goes dark, but Asha has an idea to share the lamp's light with their new neighbors. The children enjoy various activities with the lamp, including shadow play and lighting sparklers. The story illustrates how a single brilliant light can bring together old and new friends.
