#1
Deep in the green forest, tiny beetles called fireflies wake up as the sun sets. They are special because they can make their own light, like little floating stars!
#2
Fireflies do not use words to talk. Instead, they use a 'light language.' When they flash their tummies, they are sending secret signals to their friends.
#3
Each firefly family has a unique rhythm. Some blink fast like a heartbeat, while others stay bright for a long time like a glowing lightbulb.
#4
The science word for this magic is 'bioluminescence.' It means their bodies turn energy into a cool light that does not get hot like a candle.
#5
Next time you see a firefly, watch the patterns. You are watching a silent conversation happening right before your eyes in the summer night!
