With a Butterfly’s Wing is a tender story about a girl who loses her beloved grandmother and finds comfort in remembering her through the beauty of nature.
 
The Story
 
A grandmother and her granddaughter explore the secrets of nature and forge a bond that will live out forever in With a Butterfly’s Wings. Her grandmother taught her to listen to the song of the birds. Through her grandmother’s eyes, she learned to contemplate those little birds and to perceive what made them so special. Together, both the grandmother and granddaughter hear the blackbird sing among the rumble of the city that was slowly awakening, trying to guess where the bird was. Her grandmother was her best teacher: she taught her all the secrets of nature, the magic of flowers, and the spirit of monarch butterflies. Even though the grandmother is now gone, the granddaughter will now honor her with the song of nature.
