- "A wordless picture book portrayal of war seen through the eyes of a young girl who finds hope in the symbolism of yellow butterflies against the background of a pure blue sky.

Back matter includes notes on sharing a wordless picture book and how to talk to children about war."-- Provided by publisher.
