"The Tale of Freddie Firefly" by Arthur Scott Bailey is a delightful story set during the warm summer nights of Pleasant Valley, where Freddie Firefly, a happy-go-lucky insect, spends his days (and especially his nights) having adventures. Throughout the book, Freddie makes the most of his time in nature alongside his firefly family, while also learning important lessons about friendship and community. As Freddie's story goes on, he experiences fun activities with his friendly neighbors, assists the foraging Bumblebee family at night, and interacts with interesting characters, such as Benjamin Bat and Jennie Junebug, who each teach him valuable lessons about life, identity, meaningful relationships, and finding harmony between working hard and having fun.
