About this title

Synopsis

As the sun sets, a little firefly is born. It sets off to find other fireflies. On his way he sees other lights - a torch, a lightbulb, car headlights, a cat's eyes reflecting in the dark - but eventually he finds his companions. The final page lights up with real flashing lights.
