Ten Flashing Fireflies - Paperback
$8.95
by Philemon Sturges (Author), Anna Vojtech (Author)
A luminous counting picture book for young readers.
Counting down from ten to one, a girl and a boy empty the night sky of fireflies as-counting up from one to ten-they fill their jar with them. But once captured, the fireflies' light flickers and fades, so in a generous good-night gesture, the children release them. Luminous pictures and a chant-aloud text combine to make this two-way counting book as joyous and magical as catching fireflies on a summer night. Lyrical, expressive, varied, and excellent for reading out loud.-School Library Journal, starred review A book quietly luminous as its subject.
