Plop explores these qualities from different characters and experiences during the day time, when he enjoys being outside, gradually changing his perception of the dark throughout the story. The author uses the phrase ‘a fountain of dancing stars sprang up from the ground’ to describe the fireworks. Can you think of other ways of describing your favourite fireworks?
