Lucy's Light

Lucy is a lightning bug and the most talented flyer in the squad. There's just one problem: she doesn't light up!

When it's time to learn night flying, Lucy is anxious. She tries everything to get her light to shine but nothing works. Lucy is about to give up when her friends are captured by a nasty toad and his gang, who hatched a plan to brighten up their bog.

Does Lucy have what it takes to save her friends? Or is she just an "ordinary" bug after all?

A sweet story which shines a light on inner confidence, self-acceptance, and courage. Lucy learns that doing a good deed will always make you shine bright!

The series is perfect for young children who are working with issues of shyness, self-acceptance, and courage, and discovering new talents, skills and hard work. There is simplicity in the text and the illustrations are happy and bright and compliment the emotions and themes in each book. This series is sure to boost the self-confidence of children.

Lucy’s Light highlights self confidence, bravery, and self-acceptance. Lucy learns it’s fine to be different and you can shine from within too as you do good deeds to help out others. I highly recommend this book.
