Juny The Butterfly Boy:

A Story of Loss and Love

When we lose loved ones, does grief or love keep their memory alive? Juny, a beautiful but unhappy butterfly in Heaven, has a secret: he did not come from a caterpillar!

Magically, he is returned to earth as a boy to learn about his unusual birth. His heart is warmed by love of his family on earth, despite his strange beginning. But his heart sinks each time a family member leaves for “heaven.” First it was Dad, then Grandpa. Who’s next? Will they forget him? How can he remember them?
