A Lantern of Fireflies: An Illustrated Treasury of Tales of Adventure, Discovery, and Magic is the latest student publication from 826michigan, featuring twenty Huron High ninth-graders and a class of second-grade students from Mitchell Elementary. The students produced the collection of bedtime stories—they wrote the stories that they wish they'd had when they were younger.

Award-winning children's book author Mac Barnett has written the foreword and Oliver Uberti has designed the cover and end papers, as well as contributing illustrations.
