The Night of the Fireflies

By Alex Collins

What if the magic you're searching for has been inside you all along?

Every summer, seven-year-old Lincoln looks forward to visiting his Grandma Hattie's farm, where the night sky comes alive with thousands of glowing fireflies. But this year, something is wrong. The meadow is dark, the fireflies are gone, and the magic Lincoln loves seems to have disappeared.

Determined to bring the glow back, Lincoln sets out on a journey that teaches him an unexpected lesson. Through acts of kindness, helping a neighbor, comforting his frightened cousin Pip during a storm, and learning to slow down and listen, Lincoln discovers that true light does not come from the world around us. It comes from within.

Filled with heartwarming characters, gentle wisdom, and the wonder of a summer farm, Lincoln and the Lantern Within is a touching story about kindness, courage, empathy, and the power of bringing light to others.

Perfect for ages 4-8, this inspiring picture book reminds young readers that even the smallest acts of love can brighten the darkest places.
