Firefly Fred is about how working together accomplishes so much.

"Firefly Fred Ignites Mind"....What makes this book are the illustrations by Brian Patenaude. He has great fun with the subject matter and has created a character it Fred who is at once just a little scary looking and entrancing. Porter has come up with a clever story line." —Carroll Wilson, Times Record News

"In a desperate flurry of creataivity, alliteration, and maybe even some luck, Firefly Fred was born. The colorful rhyming story about a backwoods cabin dweller transformed into an honorary member of the local firefly community was conceived just in time to save a family vacation to Galvestson from ruin...." —Brent Flynn, Park Cities People
