It's a rare talent to be able to both write and illustrate your own children's book. That's just what Julie Brinckloe did when she published Fireflies in 1985. Firelies is a delicate story about a boy who longs to capture some fireflies and succeeds. However, his heart tells him that this might have not been the best idea. The pencil drawings are beautiful. It's a simple yet timeless book. Not a lot of fluff. Just a day in the boy of a life. Well done.
