Blink and Glow
Raven Howell, illustrated by Ann Pilicer
Lilly and Leo catch a firefly and a salamander, placing each creature in a glass jar as they imagine sharing them at show-and-tell. When the animals’ lights begin to fade, their grandmother helps the children reconsider what they have done. The children learn that these natural wonders need freedom, then find another way to share their interest by making a craft for friends. The story combines bioluminescent wildlife with a lesson in treating animals with care.
