A gentle Christian bedtime story about courage, kindness, family love, and the little light God can use.
When Bean wanders too far from home, the quiet garden night begins to feel big and unfamiliar. The leaves look taller, the shadows feel longer, and Bean is not sure how to find his way back to his family.
Then Nola, a gentle little firefly, comes close with her warm golden light.
Nola does not rush Bean. She does not ask him to be brave all at once. Instead, she shines beside him leaf by leaf, helping him take one small step at a time. Along the way, Bean learns that courage does not always mean seeing the whole path. Sometimes courage means trusting God, accepting help, and taking the next small step with the light He gives.
