A Flash in the Dark

I trotted back indoors as the backyard grew completely dark, eager to find a quiet perch. On the corner of a polished side table sat a heavy metal flashlight, lying quietly on its side. What happens if I press that chunky rubber button on the tail? I pushed down with the heel of my palm until it clicked! Suddenly, a bright round circle of yellow light beamed right onto the pale wall. When I slid my treasure jar right into the spotlight, the frosted green glass threw shimmering, watery shadows all across the wood! Isn't that the most magical lantern?
