Description
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. Using the colors of his national flag, Oleksandr Shatokhin has created a deeply emotional response to the conflict in Ukraine.
With stark images in black and white, this book evokes the devastating effects of war without losing sight of hope. A portion of the sale of this book will be donated to the Universal Reading Foundation who supply children's books to Ukraine.
Back matter includes notes on sharing a wordless picture book and how to talk to children about war, making it a valuable resource for parents and educators looking for ways to address difficult topics with young readers.
