This was a super cute little children's book. So often when it comes to children's books, I feel like the author skimps a little on the writing. Not so with this one. The text was not only creative, but the message in the book was solid: how, though we cannot see little fireflies all the time, they're still there and how that is like knowing that God is always there, even though we can't see Him. I think this would be a very good book for little children who are scared of the dark.
The illustrations are very sweet. The type that I would have absolutely loved as a child myself.
*I received this book from the author and happily provided my honest review*
About the Book
What do God and fireflies have in common?
Landon will do just about anything to avoid bedtime. He can't sleep when the shadows turn ordinary things in his room into spookies and creepies! His fears are put to rest one memorable evening when his daddy teaches him an important lesson about God's everlasting, ever-present love: just like the fireflies, God doesn't disappear when the lights go out.
Through the power of prayer, Landon learns that he can call on God whenever he's scared and find comfort in the love of his Father. Children will find lasting comfort in relating this familiar image to our ever-present and loving Father.
