On a Butterfly's Wing: Lessons from Nature on Embracing Change

By Astrid Vargas

Book Overview

"An absolutely delightful book. The concept, the story, and especially the glorious illustrations are simply wonderful." -- DAME JANE GOODALL, U.N. Messenger of Peace

From one of the world's leading conservation biologists comes a beautifully illustrated, autobiographical story about how the parallel lives of a butterfly and a beloved mother can help us to reflect on the unique privilege of being alive.

In an era of global change, we need narratives that offer hope. On a Butterfly's Wing: Lessons from Nature on Embracing Change is just that, inviting readers to discover what these remarkable creatures can teach us about our own difficult transformations.

This book not only shows us how to restore our relationship with the butterflies that mitigate and measure our planet's health, it invests profits in planting flowers--arranged in butterfly shapes--to feed future generations of pollinators.
