The book “Amy’s Light” is the story about a girl named Amy discovering the magic of fireflies.
Cayden: “I liked when she got out of bed when it was dark out and looked out the window and saw all of the stars lighting up outside. Then I liked when she got a jar out of the cabinet and went outside and caught the fireflies! We see fireflies when we go camping with dad. I don’t think we have ever caught any though. We should bring a jar with us next time we go. That girl in the book sure caught a lot of them! My favorite picture was when she let them all go in her room!”
Parent’s comments:
“Amy’s Light” by Robert Nutt is one of those books that takes you back to your childhood. I love the words on the opening page of the book: “It was a time of innocence. A time of ‘kick the can’ and climbing trees, of riding bikes and skinning knees, of endless days and porch swing nights, watching flickering dancing lights. It was a time to remember.” This is a wonderful book to share with that special young person in your life!
