Where Fireflies Sleep by Karen A. Wyle

“Where Fireflies Sleep is a cozy bedtime story that snapshots a sweet moment between a daughter and her dad.”

Review by Rayleigh Setser

What is sweeter than the special times a parent and child spend together?

In this picture book, Molly and her father sit on the porch as a summer day moves into evening. They’re waiting for fireflies. The reader shares Molly’s excitement and delight as first one and then more of the glowing insects appear. Molly has questions about fireflies, and her father does his best to answer. And then it’s time to get ready for bed. After Molly is finally tucked into bed, Dad goes out on the porch for one final word with the fireflies.

Where Fireflies Sleep is a cozy bedtime story that snapshots a sweet moment between a daughter and her dad.

Perfect for an audience under 6 years old, this book beautifully captures the childlike wonder of fireflies and the sentimental moment for the dad. The illustrations match the cozy feel of the story so well. This would be such a sweet book to read aloud before bedtime, or even while sitting on the porch waiting for fireflies.
