Firefly Galaxy

(3) K-3 Illustrated by Estrellita Caracol. A young girl and her family watch and wait for fireflies to come out at night. Caracol’s striking paper-collage illustrations are a good match for Nelson’s child-friendly text, both of which capture the magic of a firefly show: “It’s like the sky dropped in!” Facts about fireflies, including information about their life cycles and bioluminescence, are helpfully appended.
