The Lightning Bug Named Blue is a children's book created by the author, Melodye Hathaway, Hiawatha, Kansas, when she was 12 years old. She would tell the story to all the children she babysat for. It is a story about a lighnting bug named Blue, who was born unable to turn on his light. He is picked on and bullied by his schoolmates and is struggling with not fitting in at school. Another classmate, Brute, comes up with an idea to seek out The Old Bug from another forest that will have the answers for helping Blue turn on his light. Together Blue and Brute share an adventure that leads them through many bumps in the road and in the end he does find his light, but how he finds it is different than he or Brute ever expected. Melodye published the book to share as a legacy to her grandchildren, to highlight her grandson's artwork, and to share poem contributions written by another Hiawatha, Kansas author/poet, Helen Knabe.This book is an excellent mesh of three generations coming together, and a great tool for helping children deal with their own special gifts.
