Remember watching fireflies light up your yard on hot summer nights? Fireflies are beautiful and mysterious,and for many of us, catching and spotting them is an important part of summer. Like tiny shooting stars, these little winged acrobats flicker and dance across the yard at night. It was fun to chase those flashes around the yard and see how many we could catch. The neighborhood kids would take a mayonnaise or jelly jar, punch holes in the lid with an ice-pick and throw in a few sprigs of fresh grass; for them to eat of course! The same jars were used day after day, week after week - catching fireflies or lightning bugs (what we called them), in the evenings. What fun to catch the flying luminaries and then let them go all at once after the count and the winner was declared each night.Fireflies are actually beetles. In this book you will learn how they get their signature glow, what their flashing patterns mean and where they live.
