Disabilities happen, even with butterflies. Elmer was a Monarch Butterfly with special needs. Despite setbacks, Elmer was able to live a happy, yet short life and knew love. This is his story.
One day, as Elmer is strolling through the jungle, he hears a cry for help. A butterfly has been trapped in a hole by a fallen branch. Elmer rushes to the rescue and frees her with ease. In return, she promises to help Elmer should he ever need it. But just how can a butterfly ever help an elephant?
Emerging from a chrysalis, Flutterby floats into a loving world full of supportive creatures. Yet Flutterby is too absorbed with nature to embrace their love until she experiences the power of their friendship to transform her life. This is a parable of physical and spiritual metamorphosis. The author was dedicated to serving special needs children. Even when she was struck down in mid-life with cancer, she saw life as a great wonder and an adventure. Surrounded by supportive friends, she embraced the fullness of life. This book is her gift to future generations of children as a reminder of the miracle of life, the beauty of the world, and the importance of friendship. All proceeds from this book will go to support Autism Speaks.

Features an audio read-along! With a simple, witty story and free-spirited illustrations, Peter H. Reynolds entices even the stubbornly uncreative among us to make a mark -- and follow where it takes us. Her teacher smiled. "Just make a mark and see where it takes you." Art class is over, but Vashti is sitting glued to her chair in front of a blank piece of paper. The words of her teacher are a gentle invitation to express herself. But Vashti can’t draw - she’s no artist. To prove her point, Vashti jabs at a blank sheet of paper to make an unremarkable and angry mark. "There!" she says. That one little dot marks the beginning of Vashti’s journey of surprise and self-discovery. That special moment is the core of Peter H. Reynolds’s delicate fable about the creative spirit in all of us.
