Wonderwhy is a 6 years old girl. She has a invisible friend fairy her name is Knowall. Whenever Wonderwhy thinks why about any thing. Then her friend Knowall appears and solve all Wonderwhy’s questions.

Today what is bothering her, what she is wondering about lets see.

"Wonderwhy can you please keep your bicycle inside as its already dark?" her mother asked Wonderwhy.

"yes sure mommy I will" WOnderwhy went out to keep her bicycle inside. As she went out in dark she saw a lady bug and after some time she saw a firefly.

After seeing two types of bugs one is having light at behind and one is not having light at behind, one question popped into Wonderwhy's mind.

What makes firefly glow in the dark?

as soon as this question popped into her mind her fairy friend appeared and said, "Wonderwhy so today you are wondering about light from firefly right?"


"Oh yes fairy friend you are right, can you tell me why firefly glow in the night? Its a magic or there is also some wonder of science?" Wonderwhy asked.

"oh Wonderwhy its not a magic this is also a wonderful thing that is caused by science, I will tell you how" Knowall replied.

fairy Knoall continued "The characteristic green-yellow glow produced by a firefly is the result of a chemical reaction that takes place in the insect's abdomen. This chemical reaction involves three ingredients: luciferin (a heat-resistant substrate and serves as the source of the light), luciferase (an enzyme that triggers the light-producing chemical reaction), and oxygen (provides the fuel for the reaction to proceed)."

"fairy friend sorry for intrruption, can you tell me what is chemical reaction?" Wonderwhy said.

"oh yes sure, chemical reaction is a process in which one or more substances are changed into others " fairy Knowall replied.

"Now I got it fairy friend. Thank you very much for the information" Wonderwhy thanked the fairy Knowall.

After solving the mystry of firefly with help of fairy Knowall Wonderwhy was so happy. She grabbed her bicycle and kept it inside her house.

"Wonderwhy why are you so happy can you share with us on dinner table when everybody will have dinner together?" Wonderwhy's mother asked.

"I will share with everybody the mystery that I solved today, hurray !" Wonderwhy said.

At dinner time when everybody was having food including Wonderwhy's mother father and her little sister Cutiecurious, Wonderwhy told everybody "The science behind firefly's light".
