Biography
NickJr.com Description
"Shimmer is an 8-year-old Jewel Beetle. Her iridescent thorax wows other bugs, but she is much more than just a beautiful bug. She is a very strong-willed and resilient kid. As the big sister in her adoptive family she leads the way, relying on special heat sensors in her legs and her unmatched intuition. One of her favorite pastimes is going to the meadow to chow down on a field of flowers."
