Okay, so I devoured this book with my niece like a glowworm at a disco party. 😎 Little Curiosities: Nature’s Glow is packed with “wait, WHAT?” moments—from jellies that light up like fireworks to beach waves that sparkle like glitter. It’s fun, fast, and kinda magical. Honestly, it made me wanna grab a flashlight and go find something glowing in the backyard. Read this if you’re into cool creatures, glowing surprises, or just want your brain to be a little more sparkly. 🔦✨

I want to thank NetGalley for this ARC.
I thought the idea of writing small books about curiosities was a good one. However, I think the whole book was made using AI and tools like PowerPoint or Canva. If you are going to use those, try to do it in a more discreet and kid-appropriate way. To me, it looks too fake and not engaging.
The text is okay, but for kids, I would suggest something like, "Matilda is telling you about..." rather than just a plain summary like, "This animal has..." It needs more storytelling and less of a flat, factual tone.

This book is an absolute winner, educational but so beautifully told and illustrated. My little one was totally enthralled that creatures and nature exist that glow in the dark and the images are bright and engaging and gave us lots to talk about whilst reading. There are the perfect amount of words on each page to give the background to bioluminescence and the reasons for it for bugs or mushrooms etc but also allow the imagination of the child to take over through the way each page is presented - almost a mini story in itself. The photos are out of this world and it really did seem like we were reading about magic. We will be reading this nightly if my little one gets his way.
