"A charming, interactive tale that can help young readers engage with reading—probably one that will earn that simple command, 'Again!'" —Kirkus Reviews

There’s no place like home. But poor Florence Firefly is lost, and there are so many bright lights shining in the night sky that she doesn’t know which way to go. She’ll need some help to find her way back home. In this clever interactive picture book, readers can participate in Florence’s journey by encouraging her to fly faster, suggesting which direction to take, and making a wish.
A charming, interactive tale that can help young readers engage with reading—probably one that will earn that simple command, "Again!"
—Kirkus Reviews

With each page turn, this endearing journey offers young readers a chance for active engagement, closing with one final suggested action: “Whisper ‘Night, night, Florence!’ and blow her a good-night kiss.”
—Publishers Weekly
