What Does The Firefly Have?
As she flies through the forest, a small firefly admires all the animals she passes by. The grasshopper in the green grass, the butterfly spreading out its wings, the weaver-bird swaying in its woven nest, and the spider swinging across the trees. The small firefly is envious. Why can’t she be as beautiful as the other animals? Can you help the firefly discover the beauty she brings to the forest?
What happened to the shawl?
This ancient story from the life of the great sage, Gautama Buddha, carries a deep lesson about conservation. A disciple finds out that getting the Buddha to sanction a new shawl for him is no easy matter!
What happens at night?
This is a simple story for very young children. They can have fun spotting animals (in one of the pages, the dog is mentioned in the text but not seen in the picture, the children will have to relate it to an earlier picture to find the dog!), practice animal names and also know that at night they just need to close their eyes and sleep and rest as the animals in the story are doing:)

Suggested age, readers, English difficulty and US school grade are separate labels. Age groups are guidance based on source information or editorial review; unreviewed books are “Not assessed”. A US grade is assigned only with source information or a documented assessment; otherwise it is “Not assessed”. Levels use A1–C2 to indicate reading difficulty. StoryWeaver levels 1/2/3/4 use our approximate A1/A2/B1/B2 guide, labelled “estimated”; this is not an official equivalence. A book-specific assessment takes priority. Other unassessed books are labelled “Not assessed”. Source StoryWeaver levels are retained separately. Classics retain their original English.
