“The Firefly Who Lost His Way Home”

I am a firefly
I live with my happy family. We dance in the forest. We glitter like stars in the dark sky

But one night, I lost my way home.

“Did you see my mom?” I asked the Moon. “Sorry, it’s too bright there. I can’t see. Maybe the stars know…” said the Moon.
