Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Bug is a 1991 Sesame Street book featuring Big Bird.
Big Bird catches a lightning bug, and keeps it in a jar -- and then finds that the bug's light is getting dimmer. Despite his best efforts to cheer the bug up, he learns that animals need to be free in order to be happy. He sets him free, and the bug twinkles once again.
