No 14 in my #FavePicturebooks25 Firefly Song by @colleenpaeff & #JiHyukKim The magical true story of Lynn Frierson Faust—whose childhood curiosity led to a groundbreaking discovery about synchronous fireflies. A brilliant celebration of science & wonder! #PicturebookPage

@smithsmm @f33lthesun @PaulWat5 @Snotlady5 @Glazgow @RobCrossley4 I'm so happy to see this (a few weeks late haha!). Thanks so much, Simon. I'm glad you enjoyed Firefly Song. I feel so lucky to have been able to tell Lynn's story.

So many wonderful recommendations! (And I'm not just saying that because "The Great Stink" is one of them! 🤪☺️)
