There was a man who made butterflies. Real butterflies, not paper folds or ink drawings. They were those colorful butterflies that we see in the garden. And, mind you, he didn't, as many collect butterflies in an enclosed space. He really did. She was a magic that gave life to beautiful and colorful butterflies. Voice was the grandfather of the book's narrator
How did he make butterflies? It was simple: he took a very fat caterpillar (but without touching it, as many of them burn), put it in a box of matches, all pierced, together with four leaves for the caterpillar to eat. So, I closed and waited for the right time, without touching the box. Meanwhile, each one wondered what the next “creation” would be like: what color it would be, what size, the design of the wings. One day, the box was opened, and a newborn butterfly came out of it to color the world.
Isn't that beautiful? A man and a granddaughter who made butterflies? A sensitive book, poetically written by Laura, who won the Jabuti Prize in 2007, and with butterflies born from Janaina's watercolor. So that we can also learn how to create butterflies and color the world. Even if it is with paper and colored pencils.
