Booklist - 07/01/2024 Snail, Rolly, and their friends are back in a new Tiny Tales adventure. Firefly encourages the gang to stay up late with him and watch the moonflower bloom. Together they encounter night sounds they’ve never heard before, use Firefly’s bioluminescence to turn spooky shadows into fun shadow puppets, and see the reflection of twinkling stars in the river. Even if they aren’t able to stay awake long enough to see the moonflower bloom, they spend quality time together and discover new things about the world around them–including Firefly, who now sees the darkness in new ways. The book opens with an explanation of how to read comics and the layout of the story does a good job of following that template, making it easy for new comics readers to understand the book. The art is clear and colorful with characters that pop, even against the deep purple backgrounds of night scenes. The back matter includes information about fireflies. A sweet example of the journey being more important than the destination. - Copyright 2024 Booklist.
