Inhaltsangabe

This is a story about a tiny firefly pondering over its insignificance and witnessing the gradual distancing between trees and humankind. She watched the ants carry away tiny pieces of spilled food and lead a disciplined life, while the busy bees were always at work. The Firefly felt she was the only one who was useless. One day, there was a forest fire and everybody helped put out the fire. The Firefly wanted to help too. She begged the Sun for some light. When it got dark, she let her light shine through the dark. Soon, the other fireflies joined her. Nobody was afraid of the dark anymore. The Firefly was finally happy. The illustrations are drawn in the Mithila (also Madhubani) style of painting from northeastern India. Giving equal weight in its drawings to people, animals, and plants, the illustrations conveys the values of the Mithila region. The unique decorativeness is beautiful and enjoyable.
